MRI Scan for Lungs in Hyderabad

No. MRI is a painless, non-invasive procedure, and there are no cuts, no needles, and no blood involved. You have to lie inside a machine while the Radiologists take pictures of the desired body part.

• You first must remove all your metal ornaments and clothing and change into a hospital gown. The doctors might ask you questions like if you are pregnant or have any dental fillings or implants, all of which you have to answer honestly. If they need a contrast MRI, the doctors might inject a dye before the procedure. 
• Then you are laid down on a bed and sent into the machine where the doctors deliver instructions to you via a speaker, and you can answer through a microphone. The machine then starts, and the radiologists take pictures of the particular part of the body. The procedure is usually completed in 20-30 mins, and you can come out and dress in your clothes.

It would help if you did the following:

1. Remove all metal wear.
2. Tell the doctor about any dental fillings, tattoos, or implants.
3. Tell the doctor if you have claustrophobia, allergies to the dye or if you are pregnant.

• It can vary between 4000-9000 rupees. It depends on several factors such as part for screening, whether contrast is used, and the Lab in which the scan is done.
