The Alliance Advantage
  • The depth of experience of our physicists is significant.

  • Having multiple qualified physicists allows us to respond on short notice when your facility is under a time constraint.

  • Alliance goes beyond just filling out forms by hand. All reports are presented in a typed format which is easy to read and understand. These reports include more testing and data than just the bare minimum so your facility can maintain a superior MRI program.

  • Phone and e-mail support is always available to our clients. We have a trained office staff always ready to assist you.

  • During installations and equipment evaluations we work with service and the installation team to get the job done in an efficient manner.

  • We can provide a temporary MRI ACR phantom to complete the initial ACR Process while your facility’s phantom is being ordered.

Specific MRI Services
