Unilabs Finland Introduces State-of-the-Art Mobile MRI Unit to Enhance Diagnostic Access
Unilabs, a leading international provider of diagnostic services, has unveiled its latest initiative – a cutting-edge mobile MRI unit designed to bring advanced diagnostic services to people across Finland. Commencing operations this month, the state-of-the-art Siemens Healthineers’ equipment will significantly contribute to serving more patients, including those in rural areas.
“At Unilabs, we are committed to expanding healthcare access and reaching more patients, regardless of their location. This new mobile MRI unit enables us to support the Finnish healthcare system by extending diagnostic services to individuals in even the most remote areas. Mobile radiology is a fantastic solution, ensuring healthcare services are accessible to those who do not have immediate access to clinics or hospitals with MRI facilities,” said Unilabs Finland Country Manager Maarit Orava.
“This modern mobile MRI unit, with its faster scan time and patient-friendly design featuring a 70 cm bore, not only enhances our diagnostic capabilities but also ensures a superior experience for our patients.”
Unilabs remains steadfast in its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and expanding diagnostic access. The mobile MRI unit is 30% more energy-efficient, and facilitates enhanced patient throughput and optimised workflow, increasing the number of examinations that can be conducted with a single system.
