Mayor of Luton officially openes new MRI scanner at Luton and Dunstable Hospital

The MRI suite transformation, consisting of a new departmental layout with installation of a third scanner, new inpatient bed bays and new outpatient seating/changing areas, is now complete.

The suite provides patients with a friendly, comfortable, calming environment and waiting times should be improved.

Simon Nicholson, Imaging Manager, said: “The addition of the 3rd scanner and redesign of the department provides our patients with state of the art diagnostic MRI and a friendly and comfortable environment.

“We are delighted that the Mayor of Luton, Councillor Naseem Ayub, was able to attend and officially open the new facility.”
