  In the New Children's Hospital, we perform children's MRI scans with an appointment.

 

- You will be given an appointment for the examination and you will be informed of the appointment by letter.
- We perform examinations for children aged 0–15 years who are customers of the HUS area health centers and hospitals.
- Please note that emergency patients requiring urgent care will be served first, so other patients may need to wait.
