Comprehensive Imaging Services,
Delivered with Care

From routine X-rays to advanced open MRI scans, we provide the diagnostic imaging you need — in an environment that respects your comfort and peace of mind.

Open MRI Scanning

Our open-bore MRI system eliminates the confinement of traditional tube-style scanners. Ideal for patients with claustrophobia, larger body types, or those who simply prefer a more spacious experience — without sacrificing image quality.

CT Scans

State-of-the-art computed tomography for detailed cross-sectional imaging. Our low-dose protocols and rapid scanning technology help your physician get the answers they need — quickly and comfortably.

Digital X-Rays

Advanced digital radiography delivers clear, high-resolution images with significantly less radiation than traditional film. Perfect for evaluating fractures, joint conditions, infections, and more.

Contrast Studies

Specialized imaging procedures using contrast agents to enhance visibility of internal structures. Including arthrograms, myelograms, and other fluoroscopic studies ordered by your referring physician.

Musculoskeletal Imaging

Specialized focus on bones, joints, ligaments, and soft tissues. Whether it's a sports injury, chronic pain, or post-surgical evaluation, we provide the detailed imaging your orthopedic provider requires.

Rapid Results & Reporting

Most scans are interpreted by board-certified radiologists with results forwarded to your referring physician promptly. We understand that timely diagnoses matter — and we treat them that way.

An MRI Experience That Actually Feels Human

At Open MRI and Imaging of Newark, we started with a simple observation: too many people avoid getting the scans they need because they're afraid of the machine. Claustrophobia isn't a weakness — it's a real, documented barrier to care. And it shouldn't determine whether you get diagnosed.

That's why our facility was built around one principle: advanced imaging should never come at the cost of your dignity or comfort. Our open MRI systems provide a wider, more accessible experience while maintaining the diagnostic precision your physician relies on.

Located in the heart of Newark at 299 Chestnut Street, we're easily accessible and proud to serve patients across Essex County and the greater Metro area. Every member of our team — from scheduling to scan to follow-up — is trained to treat you like a person, not a procedure.
