The simple answer is about 613 sq. feet, or 57 sq. meters. When designing a space for MRI machines, there are many technical factors to consider which is why our Q-Care program includes help and advice from our in-house architect during the design phase. Room size is determined more by the size of the 5-gauss zone than the physical size of the machine. For health and safety reasons, the 5-gauss zone should be controlled and containing it within the MRI room offers the easiest way to do this. Other options which may allow a smaller MRI room are available, and we can advise on these if needed. We would be delighted to perform a free of charge feasibility study for you. Just send us a drawing of your hospital plans without obligation to samri@hallmarq.net

To deliver the image quality the industry expects, our unique veterinary specific coils have been designed to fit the anatomy of your patients. With the small animal in mind, we offer five different coils including a 1-meter long V-shape spine coil allowing for easy imaging of large breed dogs. This coil fits closely to your patients as they enter the MRI in dorsal recumbence and provides a 20% better signal than a flatbed made for humans. We also offer elongated head coils with removable tops for easier patient positioning. The system can also run two coils simultaneously; especially useful for imaging those difficult to reach areas such as the brachial plexus. By designing the machine with your patients in mind, and with sequences written specifically for the small animal, we get great results.
We continue to receive positive feedback from numerous Veterinary Radiologists and Veterinary Neurologists from around the world but please evaluate for yourself. Take a look at our Small Animal image gallery

We are proud to offer our sites a 99% uptime guarantee; the only one of its kind in the industry. Keeping your system running is our priority and we pride ourselves on the support and maintenance that we offer as standard through our Q-Care program.
With proactive rather than reactive support as standard, your system will experience virtually no downtime. Every five minutes, the system sends a signal to our headquarters, over a secure internet connection, allowing us to monitor over 100 parameters and respond to problems quickly. If there’s an issue, it’s we will likely have diagnosed and fixed it before you’re even aware! In addition, we can provide real-time support and coaching via our Virtual Presence platform in case you have any worries during a scan. This innovative and proven technology has been tried, tested and used on over 500,000 animals in the last 20 years.
