The Onderstepoort Veterinary Academic Hospital (OVAH) of the University of Pretoria’s (UP) Faculty of Veterinary Science has acquired its first magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. This means that the hospital now no longer has to make special arrangements with human hospitals to perform MRI scans.
In South Africa, the use of MRIs for diagnostic purposes is limited to small animals, and most MRI scans are done in human facilities by special arrangement. An MRI scan takes 45 minutes or longer, which limits the number of cases that can be referred. With the veterinary hospital's own MRI scanner, scans can now be done at any time of the day, on site, without the additional time to travel to another facility. An added advantage is that its MRI scanner will be the only high-field MRI in South Africa and Africa with image acquisition optimised for veterinary patients.
The new MRI facility was officially opened by the Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the University of Pretoria, Prof Tawana Kupe during an online event on 26 July 2021.
