MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a medical imaging technique that uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the body’s internal structures. It is a non-invasive and painless procedure that can provide high-resolution images of soft tissues, such as the brain, spinal cord, joints, and organs. MRI scans are commonly used to diagnose and monitor a wide range of medical conditions, including cancer, neurological disorders, and musculoskeletal injuries. The procedure typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour, and patients are required to lie still inside a large tube-like machine during the scan. Some patients may require a contrast agent to be injected into their veins to enhance the visibility of certain tissues or organs. MRI scans are generally considered safe, but patients with certain medical conditions or implanted devices may not be able to undergo the procedure.
I had been experiencing chronic pain for months, and my doctor recommended an MRI scan at Felix Hospital. The scan revealed a herniated disc in my spine, and the doctors were able to create a treatment plan that has greatly improved my quality of life.
MRI scans are generally considered safe and non-invasive. Unlike X-rays and CT scans, MRI does not use ionizing radiation, which can be harmful in high doses. However, there are some risks associated with MRI, such as the potential for allergic reactions to contrast agents, and the risk of injury from metal objects in the body.
The length of an MRI scan can vary depending on the type of scan and the area of the body being imaged. A typical MRI scan can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour or more. Some scans may require the patient to hold their breath for short periods of time or to remain still for extended periods.
MRI delivers sharper images than other imaging techniques, making it the greatest way for examining the human skeleton, organs, and soft tissues. It improves the doctor’s understanding of the underlying issues.
An MRI scan is often carried out by certified radiology technologists or radiographers at MRI scan facilities. Radiology technologists, often known as radiographers, are licensed healthcare professionals with specialized training in imaging investigations like MRI scans.
