What is an MRI?
Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI for short, is a non-invasive medical imaging technique. It uses powerful magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the body’s internal structures. An MRI provides highly detailed and cross-sectional images of various organs, tissues, and bones, allowing the healthcare professionals at ImageCare Radiology to assess and diagnose various conditions.
What parts of the body does an MRI evaluate?
An MRI is used to evaluate and diagnose conditions in all the areas throughout your body. It detects tumors, helps diagnose heart disease, and even screens the entire body for metastatic cancers.
The following are the areas of the body that most commonly undergo MRI scans:
- Brain and central nervous system
- Spine and spinal cord
- Musculoskeletal system
- Abdominal and pelvic organs
- Heart and blood vessels
- Breasts
- Pelvic floor
- Prostate
- Blood vessels
- Whole body
At ImageCare Radiology, you always receive expert evaluation and interpretation of your MRI scans from a knowledgeable radiologist or healthcare professional trained in medical imaging.
ImageCare Radiology places patient comfort first
The healthcare professionals at ImageCare Radiology understand the anxiety associated with undergoing MRI images. We are happy to accommodate your needs with open MRI and sedation MRI options.
Open MRI
An open MRI machine is an option for those who feel claustrophobic or uncomfortable in a traditional closed MRI scanner. Unlike traditional closed or tunnel-like MRI machines, open MRI machines have a more spacious design, offering a larger opening between the imaging components.
Sedation MRI
The term Sedation MRI refers to using sedative medications to help patients remain calm, still, and relaxed during an MRI scan. It is primarily used for anyone who may have difficulty staying still or is unable to tolerate the confined space of the MRI scanner, such as young children, people with anxiety or claustrophobia, or patients with certain medical conditions.
