Study MRI


We were very fortunate to have both our babies enrolled in a study that will follow their development until they are 8 years old. Part of the study requires that they have MRIs of their brains shortly after birth and again at their due date. The pictures show an MRI compatible incubator...it can fit within the machine and contains no stainless steel within it's parts.




This is Caelan getting ready to be transferred into the new incubator. He is all bundled and has ear plugs in to protect his ears from the noise. He did wonderful throughout the test. Ashlyn was able to go on Thursday and we received wonderful news about her test.

What a fortunate opportunity for the twins to participate in that study! I'm glad you got encouraging news about the results of Ashlyn's MRI :)
