A lighting arrangement for a medical imaging system having a cylindrical wall that forms a tunnel that receives a patient to be scanned. The lighting arrangement includes a light transmitting section aligned on a longitudinal axis of the imaging system wherein the light transmitting section forms a part of the tunnel. The lighting arrangement also includes a reflector section that is radially outside the light transmitting section. In addition, the lighting arrangement includes at least one lighting device located between the reflector section and light transmitting section wherein the lighting device emits light that is reflected by the reflector section onto the light transmitting section and wherein the light is then transmitted through the light transmitting section and into the tunnel to circumferentially illuminate the tunnel.
