Mri Of The Brain

MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) gives a clear picture of the damage or disease of

the brain which cannot be identified by CT scan, x-ray or ultrasound. The scan result shows the brain-stem, posterior brain, nerve tissues and more without obstruction. By evaluating the scan results made available in the form of photographic film, the physician is able to confirm or rule out brain cancer, tumor and other medical conditions without an iota of doubt.

Complete Brain Mapping

The coming of open MRI which uses powerful magnetic field and radio waves has made it possible to map the complete brain in 3-D cross section with greater imaging depth for correct diagnosis and treatment.

A physician may probably recommend an MRI scan to:

.assess the cause for headaches

.diagnose stroke or blood vessel problems

.check for blood clots or blood flow in the brain

.check the extent of head injury

.check for brain diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease or Alzheimer's disease

.check nerves of the eyes and ears which are connected to the brain

.infer problems associated with the pituitary gland

The patient who is to undergo the scan is only required to lie still on the sliding table wearing a hospital gown and adhere to the specific instructions given by the radiologist. The total duration of the scan may vary, but it would last from fifteen minutes to one hour.

Safe and Common Diagnostic Test

Open MRI has become very common for diagnosis of the brain and it is available at all leading health centers, hospitals and clinics. Physicians recommend the scan for patients of all age groups as it is extremely safe, non-invasive and free from radiation. Those who may be claustrophobic and need to undergo the scan would find open MRI the best choice.
