MANKATO, MN - October 20, 2026 – Orthopaedic & Fracture Clinic now offers the MAGNETOM Skyra Fit with BioMatrix, bringing advanced MRI technology to OFC to support quality imaging, patient comfort and reliable diagnostic results.
At OFC, providing excellent patient care means continually looking for ways to improve the patient experience and support accurate diagnoses. Our new MRI system is another step in that commitment.
The MAGNETOM Skyra Fit with BioMatrix is designed to support high-quality imaging, adapt to individual patient needs and make the scanning experience more comfortable.
Technology Designed Around the Patient
Every patient is different, and those differences can affect the MRI experience. Movement, breathing patterns and individual anatomy can present challenges during a scan. The MAGNETOM Skyra Fit with BioMatrix incorporates technology designed to account for these variations and support more consistent imaging results.
Key features include:
Patient-adaptive BioMatrix technology: Helps the system accommodate individual patient characteristics, including movement and differences in anatomy, to support reliable image quality.
myExam Companion: Provides intelligent guidance and automated workflows to help tailor MRI examinations to individual patient needs.
Quiet Suite technology: Reduces scanning noise during select examinations, helping create a more comfortable experience for patients.
Together, these features are designed to support diagnostic confidence and reduce the need for repeat scans when possible.
Supporting Accurate Diagnoses and Treatment Planning
Clear, detailed MRI images help physicians evaluate injuries and other musculoskeletal conditions. The MAGNETOM Skyra Fit with BioMatrix features advanced imaging technology designed to enhance image quality and support efficient examinations.
The system also incorporates updated coil technology and scanning capabilities that can help improve imaging efficiency for select exams. These advancements support OFC's work to provide physicians with the information they need to evaluate conditions and develop appropriate treatment plans for their patients.
An Investment in Continued Excellence
OFC is committed to providing high-quality orthopedic care close to home. Investing in advanced imaging technology allows us to continue building on that commitment while keeping patient needs at the center of our decisions.
In addition to our new MAGNETOM Skyra Fit with BioMatrix, OFC also offers a 1.2T Hitachi High Field Open-Sided MRI. Its spacious, open design provides another imaging option for patients who experience claustrophobia or need additional room during their exam.
The MAGNETOM Skyra Fit with BioMatrix brings together imaging advancements, intelligent scanning technology and features designed with patient comfort in mind. It is one more way OFC continues to support patients and physicians throughout the care process.
At OFC, our focus remains the same: helping patients get the answers they need and the care they deserve.
