Stepping up for BC’s most vulnerable newborns.
BC Women’s Health Foundation is raising $6.5 million to purchase and install a ground-breaking new piece of equipment: The Embrace Neonatal MRI Scanner (Aspect Imaging).
OUR VISION:
A STATE-OF-THE-ART
NICU MRI
The Embrace Neonatal MRI Scanner (Aspect Imaging) is the only Health Canada-approved MRI scanner designed specifically for neonates, it will be solely reserved for NICU use, providing quick and easy access for BCWH newborns who need it most. Only 5 hospitals currently use the Embrace MRI worldwide. BCWH will be the first in Western Canada.
