Providing advanced clinical imaging and patient care along with dedicated capability in basic and translational human research.
Introducing CRIC
In January 2017, SAHMRI and Dr Jones and Partners Medical Imaging opened the Clinical and Research Imaging Centre (CRIC) as the premier site for advanced imaging in South Australia.
The striking light-filled clinic is uniquely situated on the northern promenade of the SAHMRI building and immediately adjacent to the new RAH, at the interface between research and our healthcare system.
We aim to:
- Provide state-of-art clinical imaging in a patient focused environment with the benefit of research solutions and expertise
- Build on SAHMRI’s imaging strategy to support research throughout South Australia
- Strengthen collaboration in the imaging sciences between South Australia’s three universities, industry and the health system.
Research and Discovery
SAHMRI is a globally recognised research institute fostering discovery and collaboration in health care. Building on capabilities at the cell and animal level, the CRIC provides new opportunities for basic and translational human imaging.
Facilities are available at competitive fees to all academic, clinical and industry researchers include:
- Wide-bore 3T MRI with multinuclear and functional imaging
- FORCE dual source CT - effective 384 slices; 66ms temporal and 0.24mm spatial resolution; precision dual energy; and radiation doses half other leading systems.
- Molecular imaging with mCT 64 Flow time-of-flight PET/CT with industry leading resolution and radioisotope development provided from SAHMRI’s cyclotron
- Consultation, preparation and conference areas
Quality assurance and governance processes meet specific needs of the scientific community and our strategic research partnership with Siemens Healthcare ensures access to on-site scientist, works-in-progress packages, the via Frontier environment and a global scientific network.

The CRIC aims to strengthen collaboration in the imaging sciences between South Australia’s three universities, industry and the health system.
The Clinical and Research Imaging Centre addresses current and future health challenges through understanding the basis of disease, early diagnosis and personalised treatment - in cancer, brain disease, spinal cord injury, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, child health and beyond.
We invite patients, clinicians, researchers and trial coordinators to join us in this exciting development for South Australia.
The Centre is to be officially opened on 16th February 2017.
We acknowledge and pay respect to the Kaurna People of the Adelaide Plains. It is upon their ancestral lands that the Clinical and Research Imaging Centre sits.
