Frequently asked questions
help_outline What is an MRI?
MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It's a diagnostic tool that uses a large magnet, radio waves, and a computer to create detailed images of the inside of the body without X-rays.
help_outline How long have MRIs been in use?
The principles of MRI have been utilized since the 1940s, but commercial approval by the FDA was granted in the 1980s.
help_outline For what types of medical problems is MRI the most useful?
MRI is particularly effective in examining soft tissues, making it valuable for diagnosing brain disorders, musculoskeletal issues, and certain abdominal and pelvic organ conditions.
help_outline How does MRI work?
MRI works by aligning the protons in your body with a magnetic field, disrupting their alignment with radio waves, and then measuring the energy released as they return to a normal state to create images.
help_outline Are there any risks?
Currently, there are no significant side effects associated with MRIs; however, some patients may not be eligible for the procedure, like those with pacemakers.
help_outline Will my doctor process the MRI results from start to finish?
A radiologist will analyze the MRI images and interpret the results, which will then be communicated to your doctor.
help_outline How long does the MRI exam take?
Typically, MRI exams take less than one hour, but duration can vary based on the areas examined.
help_outline How soon can I schedule myself for the MRI?
Routine MRI appointments can generally be scheduled within two to four business days, while emergency cases may be accommodated the same day upon doctor approval.
help_outline Is an MRI exam painful?
No, MRI exams are painless, but may require an injection of a contrast agent.
help_outline Can I still have the MRI test if I have…?
Dental work and hearing aids are generally permissible if removed, while conditions like pacemakers and implanted infusion pumps disqualify patients.
help_outline Should I bring any previous MRIs, CTs, or X-rays?
Yes, it's advisable to bring any previous imaging for comparison.
help_outline How do I prepare for the MRI?
Most MRI scans require no preparation, but for abdominal scans, it's recommended not to consume food or drink for four hours prior.
help_outline How long before my doctor gets results?
Results from non-emergency exams are typically available within 24-48 hours.
