Use of an Infotainment System in MRI in Patients Suffering From Unexpected Anxiety. (USIA)

January 14, 2026 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon

MRI scans are now considered essential for diagnosing or monitoring disease, and as a result, the number of MRI scans has increased significantly in recent years.

Nevertheless, these routine examinations remain a source of apprehension and anxiety for some people.

The objective of this study is to compare two methods of care, enabling anxious individuals to complete their MRI examination and obtain images of sufficient quality for the radiologist to read and interpret.
