MRI Scan in Gurugram – Test, Cost, Procedure & Benefits

An MRI Scan, which stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging, is one of the most cutting-edge imaging tests we perform to produce quality imaging of internal organs, soft tissues, and the brain. Here at Modern Diagnostic & Research Centre (MDRC), we offer the latest 3 Tesla (3T) MRI scans with improved clarity due to the advanced technology. This advanced machine generates quality images through improved resolution and speed - all while increasing patient comfort.

Whether your doctor has recommended an MRI for the brain, spine, joints, or abdomen, the radiology team at MDRC works to guarantee a safe, accurate, and timely diagnosis to improve treatment decisions.

What is an MRI Scan?

An MRI scan is a non-invasive imaging technique that utilizes powerful magnetic fields as well as radio waves to produce cross-sectional imaging of the body. An MRI does not use radiation like X-rays or CT scans. MRI is exceptionally useful for imaging the brain, spinal cord, muscles, joints, heart, and internal organs.

MRI technology can be used to identify, monitor, and detect various conditions with high accuracy for an array of diseases - including, but not limited to, tumors, injuries, neurological conditions, ligament tears, infections, etc.


 

How Is a MRI Scan Done?

An MRI scan is safe, painless, and usually done on an outpatient basis. The procedure is done while you lie still in a large tubular scanner that uses magnetic fields to take images of the inside of the body.

Step-by-step overview:

  1. You will be asked to take off any metallic items (jewelry, belt, watch, etc.).
  2. The technician will assist you so you can lie comfortably on the MRI table
  3. The table will move into the MRI machine, and images will be taken section by section.
  4. You may hear soft tapping or knocking sounds during the MRI, so ear plugs or headphones will be provided to you.
  5. A Radiologist interprets the results of the MRI for your doctor.
  6. If you have been ordered to have a contrast MRI, you may receive a safe contrast dye (gadolinium) through an intravenous line to enhance the detail of the images on specific organs or blood vessels.

How Does an MRI Scan Work?

Traditional radiology uses radiation; MRI uses strong magnets and radio waves instead of radiation to obtain the images. The MRI scan works as follows:

a. The MRI machine creates a strong magnetic field that aligns some of the hydrogen atoms in your body.

b. Short bursts of radio waves disrupt that alignment.

c. Signal Detection: As atoms realign, they produce signals detected by the scanner.

d. Imaging: A computer receives all these signals to produce images in greater detail as either 2D or 3D image representations of internal structures.

The MRI has become the imaging modality of choice for identifying brain and spine conditions, ligament injuries, and various conditions related to the organs.

Benefits of MRI Scan

a. Completely safe=no ionizing radiation

b. High-resolution 3D imaging of soft tissues

c. Detects abnormalities not seen in X-ray or CT scan

d. Helpful in early detection and disease monitoring

e. Can be used for pregnant women (in some cases, with doctor's advice and experience)

How to prepare for an MRI Scan

  • Preparation varies depending on the type of scan (i.e. brain vs abdominal):

  • Wear loose and comfortable clothes without metal fasteners.
  • Remove all watches, jewelry or credit cards prior to entering the scan room.
  • If abdominal MRI, it may require you to fast for 4–6 hours.
  • If contrast is involved, let your doctor know if you have allergies or kidney problems.
  • If you are pregnant, always notify the technician prior to performing the scan.

MRI scans are generally very safe because they do not use ionizing radiation. However, people with certain metal implants, pacemakers, or medical devices may not be eligible for MRI. It is important to inform the radiology team about any implants, surgeries, or medical conditions before the scan.        
    

An MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan is a non-invasive medical imaging technique in that uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed pictures of internal organs, tissues, and bones. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, MRI does not use radiation, making it a safer option for many patients.
