• An MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan is a medical imaging technique used to create detailed images of the organs and tissues inside the body. It uses a powerful magnetic field, radio waves, and a computer to produce these images.

The duration of an MRI scan can vary, but typically it takes between 15 to 45 minutes. Some complex scans may take longer.

MRIs and CT scans reveal body structures, with CT providing quicker images and MRIs providing detailed images for diagnosing abnormal tissues.

MRI scan results are often concluded and reported to the referring physician within days, who then discuss the results with the patient and recommend necessary follow-up actions.

• No, an MRI scan is a painless procedure. You will need to lie still inside the MRI machine, which can sometimes be uncomfortable, but the scan itself does not cause any pain.

• In most cases, you can eat and drink as usual before an MRI scan. However, for certain types of MRI scans, you may be instructed to fast for a few hours beforehand. It’s best to follow the specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
