MRI Shielded Imaging Room
The very nature of an MRI room is intimidating; designing for this application goes beyond meeting the required light levels. It's about creating a sense of calm by introducing biophilic elements, while providing safe operation among all the sensitive equipment in the room.
MRI Series has what it takes to meet those challenges thanks to features including Silent Source™ technology, an allinclusive approach developed by Axis Lighting to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and simplify MRI imaging room lighting design and installation.
