Dear Darktale, Do you know if the Canon Orian model is quieter than the other Canon's models with Pianissimo technology? I ask this because there is another model of 1.5T - Canon Vantage Elan (https://us.medical.canon/products/magnetic-resonance/vantage-elan-15t/), which also have Pianissimo...

Hi, Just to update the chart of positive/negative reactions based on the reports of this thread. All the best.

I think Canon Vantage 1.5T with Pianissimo technology is the most quiet one from traditional MRIs. I was able to locate them in my country using the international customer service e-mail, which is listed on the official website.

I've seen some people arguing that, but also the opposite, stating that the images obtained by these low field MRI scanners for extremities are not worse than those obtained by the traditional ones with higher magnetic field: "If comparing the O-Scan to a 1.5 tesla unit, we find images are very...

Why didn't he want it? Anyway please note that these machines may produce little noise by just being turned on. Was the machine actually performing a scanning procedure when you heard it?

Dear members, I have bad hyperacusis and mild tinnitus from an acoustic trauma and I need to have an MRI scan on my knee. I would like to know your opinion about the quietness of low-field strength dedicated MRI scanners (also known as extremity MRI scanners), which use reduced magnetic field...

Dear members, I need to have an MRI on my knee, and I have 2 model options: Toshiba Vantage Galan 3T, or Toshiba Vantage Elan 1.5T, both with "Pianissimo" technology. The model Vantage Elan should be quiter because it's 1.5T right? Another question: Do you know of any place in Europe to buy...

Dear all, I have hyperacusis and a car alarm went off for 2 seconds before I fingered my ears just in front of my house when I was inside without earplugs. I didn't feel pain. There were 2 protections between me and the alarm: the windows of the house (not double glass, just single glass)...

Thank you for your answer. My ENT told me this audiogram covers frequencies up to 14kHz. I'm afraid because my sound sensibility is mostly on high frequencies. As anyone here with H has done this extended audiogram with decreasing volume? How did you feel? Best regards

What about having ear fullness and increased sound sensivity 1 week after the acoustic trauma, and having completely normal ears during that week?

Dear members, An ENT doctor told me that the audiograms with tones that increases in volume until the patient rises the hand are not feasible. He told me that the correct way to do this is to start with audible tones and decrease the volume until the patient doesn’t hear them, rising his hand...

But did your symptoms take 1 week to show up after the incident? I mean, did you have 1 week without any pain, fullness, or increased H and T ?

Do you think this is related with the accident? The fullness feeling is not constant, it comes and goes several times a day, as well as my sound sensivity. Should I take prednisone 10 days after the accident anyway? I have deflazacort which is the same thing I guess.

Dear members, I would like to have your opinion about the following situation. Background: I had an acoustic trauma 5 years ago from an alarm, which gave me immediate ear pain and fullness feeling. Several days later, I developed hyperacusis and tinnitus, which subsided after a few months. I...
