You do not necessarily have to suffer from claustrophobia to find an examination in an MRI tube unpleasant. For people with a fear of confinement, however, it is almost unbearable. The MRI tube is considered a commonly known place of confinement and can therefore also be used for claustrophobics who are confronted with other places of confinement in their everyday life.

Description of the scenario

At the beginning, the patient stands in the corner of the treatment room where the MRI tube is located. He can either go over to the tube himself or jump there using the teleport function. He can look at the tube from close up and put his head in it for a test.

The patient can lie down in your practice. . At the push of a button, you can teleport him to where he has to lie down on the MRI tube. From now on, the patient experiences the rest of the procedure lying down. Including the movement into the MRI machine and the scan in the tube.

As the therapist, you can trigger the following actions yourself:

• Bring the patient into the lying position in front of the MRI tube.
• Let the patient enter the tube
• Start and end the scan
• Size of the tube
