MRI-Compatible Relaxation System from Wardray Premise

The Relax & View Video Relaxation System from Wardray Premise Ltd (Surrey, United Kingdom) is designed for patient relaxation during MRI scans. Patients view an 18-inch thin film transistor screen that is housed in a shielded enclosure and mounted on the wall behind the scanner. A video signal is supplied to the screen via a fiber-optic cable to ensure interference-free operation of the video system with no possibility of artifacts on the scan. Audio is delivered through the scanner's audio system or the company's audio entertainment system. The system also can be used in applications where the patient is subjected to visual stimuli for functional brain imaging.
