University Of Chicago DCAM Building MRI

This 3T MRI is in DCAM at the University of Chicago Medical Center. This MRI required both RF Shielding and magnetic shielding, continuous throughout. While RF shields are usually nonferrous, magnetic shields are ferrous, usually mild steel laminated outside of the rf shield to protect people or electronics from the 5 Gauss field. The cryogen is kept cold using a Filtrene glycol dedicated chiller in the equipment room directly underneath the MRI room. During Construction a large HEPA fan creates negative pressure inside the room to avoid anything from escaping into the active hospital. A pressure detector logs this pressure continuously. Fortunately in this location no crane was required because it was a ground-level site. Union riggers use a forklift and skates to deliver to the site.

This time savings equates to many thousands of dollars in increased revenue and in decreased cost due to overtime, equipment rental, and outsourcing patients. Will the medical gas delivery system in your Cath Lab pass inspection by your states Public Health Regulatory Agency? Will your floor support a PET?CT system? Is the RF and Magnetic Shielding in your current MRI room adequate for a 3T upgrade? Our teams experience in radiology construction uniquely allows us to anticipate your facilities specific needs while saving you time and money for your project. Make IQ Contracting your partner in your next medical facilities construction project and we will find solutions together.

University Of Chicago Q Building MRI

Delivering an MRI through a 3rd-floor window that is surrounded by other buildings. No problem for IQ Contracting. With a coordinated evacuation plan and a two crane team, almost 50 people participated in this lift. The 300-ton crane requires 12-53′ trucks of counterweights and extensions built onto a smaller crane by another small crane. First, the old MRI is removed using a platform that is temporarily attached to the building. As we began delivering the new MRI, the helicopter team alerted us to an emergency case. All activity was backed up as we waited for the patient to arrive. Deliveries typically take a few hours out and in, this was two long days.
