Description:
Every MRI scan makes a unique sequence of sounds, so it is possible to predict when each of them will occur in the scan. We collected the sound sequences of the most common pediatric MRI scans (cranial, liver, spine, sella turcica, and ears) and, in partnership with renowned authors and sound designers, produced audiobooks that synchronize story moments precisely with each sound of the scan.
With Magnetic Stories, we are giving new and delightful meaning to all MRI noises—turning the fast spin echo beeping into a cute robot talking, or the constant pumping of the helium recondenser into the sound of a flying train, for example.
Now, pediatric patients can immerse themselves in original stories during their scans, easing their fears inside the machine.
