Tesla Vision Projector for MRIs

MRT Entertainment is not a luxury, but an advantage for workflows and profitability!

Radiological technologists strive to produce high-quality images, ensure patient comfort and keep to the schedule.

However, the biggest hurdle is not the technology, but the patient: fear, movement, claustrophobia.

These factors impair scan quality, disrupt the process and reduce cost-effectiveness. Many facilities rely on headphones or sedatives to solve the problem.

The Tesla Vision projector offers more than entertainment – it is the better solution. The fully MR-certified, touchless and maintenance-free system calms, distracts and creates peace and quiet. The result: faster and clearer scans, fewer delays, happier patients and greater efficiency. In Europe, HappyMed is the exclusive distribution partner of Tesla Vision.

Improve the patient experience where it matters most.

The world of MRI is changing. Thanks to better magnets and AI software, scan times are getting shorter while scan volumes are increasing. But patients’ anxiety is also growing. Even the most modern scanners and large-tube systems cannot prevent this: studies show that almost 30% of patients feel anxious or restless during an MRI examination. This impairs both imaging and efficiency.

If examinations take longer, repetitions and interruptions become more frequent. Restlessness increases, the situation becomes more unpleasant, and spontaneous twitching occurs more often.

Excellent acceptance among patients and RTs

The underestimated influence of rescans

Many centres do not record the rescan rate at all, or only do so incompletely. They have hardly any internal processes in place to systematically check how often and to what extent repeats are necessary. As a result, the problem usually remains invisible – as do the economic consequences. MRI manufacturers do not offer a function in their software to document or evaluate rescans. They classify this as a ‘user problem’.Studies show that movement and artefacts in MRIs are common reasons for rescans – resulting in high costs and productivity losses. A key study („Toward Quantifying the Prevalence, Severity, and Cost Associated With Patient Motion During Clinical MR Examinations“, Andre et al., 2015) found that:

  • 19.8% of all MRI examinations had to be repeated at least partially because motion artefacts impaired image quality.
  • For inpatients and emergency patients, the rescan rate was as high as 29.4%.

Other studies show that motion artefacts occur in up to 59% of neuro-MRI examinations and often necessitate repeat scans.

Contact-free & hygienic

The Tesla Vision projector was developed specifically for use in MRI environments. It displays calming scenes and videos that offer patients an immersive experience. It is already in use in over 200 centres worldwide. As an MR Conditional system, it operates safely near MRI scanners with a field strength of up to 3.0 Tesla and fits diameters from 60 to 80 cm. Once started, Tesla Vision runs all day long.

Customer testimonials from the United States

"The image projected by the projector makes the MRI tube appear more inviting. Previously, it was perceived as rather gloomy and confined. Simply put, it makes patients feel less claustrophobic. The projector can remain on around the clock and does not interfere with patient flow. It is a very stable system and does not hinder patient admission. It speeds up workflows because there are fewer delays due to claustrophobia. We receive fewer complaints and the department is state-of-the-art in terms of patient experience and comfort. The Tesla Vision projector helps the clinic to better market itself as a patient-centred imaging centre."

If you want to improve the experience of your MRI patients, this product is for you! Since its recent installation, I have been thrilled with how vivid and impressive the videos projected over our MRI are. Gone are the days of patients staring at a boring piece of plastic and counting down the minutes until the end of the exam. Combined with the surround sound headphones, I found the examination extremely calming and was completely distracted from the actual scan. From the outset, the process with Tesla Vision was quick and straightforward. There was no downtime after delivery, and installation took about four hours – including a brief training session. Best of all, no changes to the magnets, controls or equipment were required."

‘I am delighted to be able to offer Tesla Vision to our MRI patients. The videos serve as a welcome distraction from the confined space of the MRI scanner. The realistic fish aquarium in particular – my personal favourite – has calmed many anxious and nervous patients, especially when combined with the music. They often tell us how the videos help them pass the time more pleasantly during the examination.’
