This paper explains the design of a multimedia environment that enables children to face more easily MRI examinations. The idea is to transform the initial hospital environment to make it more convivial for children. Our aim is to add a play interface between the hospital and the children world. After the description of the initial environment of the paediatric hospital service, this paper shows how the use of multimedia devices eases the acceptance of a aggressive real world. By adding virtuality, the MRI scanner and center have been turning away from their diagnostic and stressful functions to become a convivial place for children.
