*Please note: As of June 12, 2023, the unit returned to its permanent location on the ground floor:
Edmond and Lily Safra Children's Hospital, Entrance floor, in front of the reception desk of the emergency room
The Imaging unit at the Edmond and Lily Safra Children's Hospital is one of the largest facilities in Israel for pediatric imaging. The unit performs a wide range of imaging tests for children, including plain films, fluoroscopy, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), all under the close supervision of our radiologists who are experts in pediatric imaging. In the fields of magnetic resonance of fetuses in the womb (FETAL MRI) and magnetic resonance of the body (BODY MRI), our level of activity is unparalleled in Israel.
Information worth knowing:
• Parents are allowed to be with their child during any test, except tests conducted under anesthesia.
• A pregnant woman cannot stay in an X-ray, fluoroscopy or CT room.
• When undergoing sedation for examinations, a parent or guardian must be present.
• When conducting tests for babies, it's recommended to have a pacifier and a feeding bottle on hand.
• When children are being examined, it’s advisable to bring a toy, favorite object, game or book, suitable for their age.
