Hello! I am the author of this website. I will be grateful for a small favour (not money!) that will take you only 5 seconds! Apart from running this medical equipment website, I am also interested in psychology. I find that there are a lot of people afraid of having an MRI scan because of anxiety. As a project, I would like to make a free website that will share practical information about how to overcome one’s anxiety of having an MRI scan. I need to choose a nice name for the website. With difficulty, I have managed to purchase the two website names shown below. However, I am not sure which name is better and I will be grateful if you will help me to decide which one to use by selecting the name below that you think is better. Your answer will truly help me to decide. Thank you!
Hello! My name is Pras and I am the author of this website that you are now reading. I have made this website completely free to access so that people from all over the world can benefit from it.
If you can afford it, I would be very grateful if you would consider making a single donation of one dollar (or the equivalent in your currency) to help cover the expenses needed to run this website (e.g. for special software and computers). For this website to survive, donations are desperately needed. Sadly, without donations, this website may have to be closed down.
Unfortunately, perhaps because many people think that someone else will donate, this website gets only very few donations. If you are able to, please consider making a single donation equivalent to one dollar. With support from people like you, I am sure that this educational website will continue to survive and grow.
