For Physicians

The radiologists and staff at Expert MRI are among California’s most knowledgeable and experienced at diagnosing orthopedic injury, as well as unexplained chronic pain. In addition to open and Stand-up MRI, we also use high-field strength MRI, CT and X-Ray to assist in properly diagnosing your patient’s condition.

Our doctors remain at the very forefront of their field, working with institutions such as UCLA, USC, UCSD and the United States military on advanced radiology and orthopedic research. We also provide general diagnostic imaging services for patients who are unable to undergo a traditional MRI, due to anxiety, claustrophobia or size issues. Our positional MRI systems are completely open in the front which makes for a much more pleasant patient experience.

As an outpatient network, our diagnostic imaging tests are highly affordable for patients, saving them hundreds—or in some cases thousands—of dollars compared to the equivalent test they would receive at the hospital. If you would like to consult with one of our radiologists, please contact us at 877-MRI-0004.

The full range of clinical flexibility

In 1996, FONAR introduced the stand-up MRI, the first MRI capable of performing “positional” imaging. For the first time, patients could be scanned standing, sitting, bending or lying down, and the MRI was identifying pathologies that had gone undetected on conventional MRI systems that only imaged patients in the supine position. Another benefit of the system is that it was completely open in the front, which made it possible for anxious and claustrophobic patients to have a more comfortable imaging experience. It was also able to accommodate larger patients for whom traditional MRI was not possible.

The quality of open and stand-up MRI has improved in recent years, making these options more than adequate for many different types of MRI exams. While Expert MRI offers one of California’s largest networks of stand-up MRI systems, we also offer traditional high-field strength MRI for cases where a more powerful system is needed. By offering some of the most comprehensive MRI capabilities in the region, we are able to offer you and your practice the clinical flexibility it needs. And by offering them excellent pricing, incredible convenience and concierge-quality service, your patients will find that Expert MRI delivers a truly excellent experience.
