Allegedly they have the “fastest MRI machine in the state, possibly the country” (according to the receptionist). (Apparently they have a 3T.) True to the receptionist’s word, the technician promised the scan would take 7 minutes, but it only took 5.5.
I’ve had a bunch of tests in the office and they have all kinds of (what seems to me to be) very advanced technology in their basement. However … Their elevator is ancient, slow, claustrophobic and a little scary. Riding it, one wouldn’t anticipate the technology one encounters after.
Anyway, I think it’s pretty funny that they have a sign - mounted at adult eye level - seemingly to provide instructions for someone who’s never ridden an elevator before.

The good news is, there’s no way for these machines to not be incredibly cool.
Oh, is that ensured mechanically? That’s really cool, do you have any links or similar? I always love learning about this kinda stuff!
I was making a joke about the two main meanings of cool.
MRI machines are really cool, like they’re neat. I’m sure they can heat up, but their design is still pretty awesome.
