MRI

Advanced Global Construction Inc. provides intelligent planning, design and construction of MRI and Radio Frequency Shielding projects for government, military and medical facilities.

With years of experience, our personnel have the expertise to perform all work required on Radio Frequency Shielding for MRI and RF Testing, as well as radiation prescriptions and containment for X-Ray, CT, RF, PET-CT.

In an ever changing world, AGC prides itself on keeping abreast of the latest medical equipment and technology, allowing us to exceed the customer’s highest expectations and meet their particular requirements throughout the facility planning, design, construction and project opening.

Advanced Global Construction MRI Facility

A medical imaging facility generally contains a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) suite, computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET), radiography and fluoroscopy (RF), and a linear accelerator (Linac).

This type of equipment must be contained from local environmental interference, including additional medical equipment, which emit radio frequency signals from MRI field.

The environment has to be shielded and tested from RF and magnetic interference, as strong magnetic fields can mechanically damage sensitive instruments, discharge batteries, or erase magnetic media.

Any ferrous object within the field of these magnets can be drawn to the MRI equipment with great force, creating multiple hazards.

Proper shielding and testing protects patients, healthcare providers, employees and sensitive electronic equipment from the effects of strong magnetic and radiation fields common with imaging equipment.
