Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide a system and method for using an electro-pneumatic insufflator for magnetic resonance imaging, such as for virtual colonoscopy. Embodiments of the invention further provide a MRI imaging suite and a method for distension of a body part to be imaged. As an alternative to the complete redesign of an electromagnetic insufflator, embodiments of the current invention utilize a standard electro-pneumatic insufflator that operates in a location impervious to electromagnetic radiation using an electromagnetically inactive connection tube.
