Got lost on this site was going to reply to post I saw about mri and claustrophobia. I do not have cancer but had a medical need for mra of the messenteric vessels lately which is a test has to be done in an mri. I have found out that there is a machine called the phillips intera that is the newest smallest mri machine and capable of doing any test also they say. I also have found a site called natural mri...natural mri.com I thin k and they are in Texas and I think some similar or same in Florida, rose imaging I think...has four locations and you can get an mri done standing or sitting up and watching tv! fyi.
