The
photo of a MR image made
with the new Toshiba MR
shows the latest in Non-Contrast
Imaging -- as this image
was made without injecting
any contrast media dye.
The new MR has the latest
in Noise Reduction Technology
that significantly reduces
exam noise. And this means
KDMC patients will receive
the quietest MR available.
"The Toshiba Titan
MR is a dramatic improvement
over other traditional MR
systems, as it offers the
largest and widest bore
available with a significant
reduction in noise,"
says Kelly Smith, KDMC Radiology

Dr.
Mills and LDRP Staff,
"I wanted to personally
thank you all for everything
during our stay at KDMC.
The nurses I had were great,
always checking on me and
making sure we were comfortable.
The housekeeping did a great
job keeping our room clean.
I was pain-free and everyone
there made it a wonderful
experience. Harleigh Grace
is doing great!
We can't thank you all enough
for keeping us safe through
delivery. She is truly a
blessing and means so much
to us! We will definitely
recommend KDMC to others!"
