Here's how the MRI stereo system works:

• This system comes with a Sangean stereo that can connect to the Internet to stream music from Pandora, Spotify, iTunes or thousands of Internet radio stations
• The wooden cabinet of the Sangean stereo delivers amazing sound from the built-in speakers
• An Aux input will allow connection of external devices, such as an iPod, iPad or even an audio player brought in by the patient
• The Sangean stereo system, stereo amplifier and microphone are situated nearby the Technologist
• There are two cables that connect from the amplifier output, going to two BNC connectors on the RF penetration panel in the computer room
• On the opposite side of that panel (inside the scan room) two coaxial cables go from those BNC connectors to the front of the magnet cover where they connect to an acrylic box, called the Patient Acoustic Interface (or "PAI")
• The Patient Acoustic Interface is included with the sound system kit and it is mounted in the scan room on the floor near the front of the MRI magnet
• Inside the PAI there are two special acoustic transducers that convert the audio to pneumatic sound, pushing the sound through twin vinyl tubes
• The twin vinyl tubes carry the pneumatic audio to patient acoustic headphones, so the patient can hear true stereo sound
• The acoustic headphones are made from plastic materials that are MRI safe and are invisible to the MRI scans
• The patients wear the headphones while they are inside the MRI magnet for their scan
• The Technologist selects the music and talks to the patient using the push-button microphone at the operator console
• The volume and microphone levels are set on the amplifier to a level that is comfortable for the patient
• As the Technologist speaks into the microphone, the music drops down and the patient can clearly hear the technologist in their headphones
• The patient can respond verbally, and the patient will be heard through the MRI system's own built-in intercom
• Most patients will quickly relax after putting on the headphones and this enables the Technologist to begin scanning without delay
• Time is saved as the Technologist will not have to coax the patients into the scanner
• Most patients quickly become relaxed by the music and patients will generally close their eyes and lie still for much longer periods
• The music helps patients to pass the time and effectively cope with being inside the tight confining space of the MRI system

You will have a great time just using the built in features, however there are lots of optional choices that certainly will bring music to your patient's ears:

• The auxiliary input will enable MRI facilities to add their own external sources, such as an iPod, iPad or iPhone
•  
• The Sangean stereo can connect to your facility Internet network using Wi-Fi or an RJ-45 Ethernet connector
• You can tune into thousands of Internet radio stations or play music streaming from sources such as Pandora and Spotify
