MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a non-invasive imaging test considered one of the most advanced in modern medicine. Developed by scientists Peter Mansfield and Paul Lauterbur, MRI has significantly contributed to medicine, earning them the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2003. Because it does not involve radiation, MRI is considered extremely safe MRI scans internal organs using a high-intensity magnetic field. MRI provides a sharp, three-dimensional, and clear image of internal organs, allowing the diagnosis of medical conditions that may not be detectable with other imaging modalities
An examination highlighting brain tissue, including the cerebellum and cranial nerves (including optic and auditory nerves). It allows the diagnosis of various conditions, including space occupying lesions, brain bleeding, congenital anomalies, epilepsy causes, metabolic diseases, disorders of the central nervous system, and ischemic changes
Neck Mri exams show the soft tissues in the neck, needed to diagnose a wide range of medical conditions, including: tumors, congenital anomalies, masses, and infections. It is particularly effective for neck tumors, contributing to investigating the spread of growths in the area and the involvement of other organs. Additionally, this test assists in choosing the right treatment for neck tumors and as well as for surgical guidance
An imaging test that demonstrates the blood vessels in the brain and neck with high accuracy, including veins and arteries. This test is highly effective for identifying various conditions in the brain’s blood vessels, including brain aneurysms, carotid artery disease, imflammatory lesions as well as vascular malformations. It also plays a role in planning invasive procedures in the brain and neck to reduce the risk of damage to vital blood vessels during these procedures. Usually, the procedure is done with the injection of a contrast agent, but it is non-invasive and painless
examination that is performed primarily when there is suspicion of a neurological disease, but it can also be done when there is suspicion of a space occupying lesion or infection in the spine. It can also be performed in cases where previous imaging tests did not find the source of the problem in the area. This test allows the identification of neurological diseases, inflammation, disc ruptures, congenital anomalies, problems in the spine’s blood vessels, and aids in planning for surgical procedures in the spine, if needed
>An examination demonstrating bones, muscles, joints, ligaments, and discs. It allows the diagnosis of medical conditions that cannot be diagnosed using other including in upper limb and lower limb body parts
An examination that provides a detailed visualization of breast tissues, including the mammary glands, milk ducts, and surrounding soft tissues. The test is usually performed in cases of suspected tumors, for monitoring women at high risk for breast cancer, or for assessing the condition of implants. Breast MRI is particularly effective in diagnosing medical conditions that are not visible in other imaging tests, such as mammography or ultrasound. This examination offers exceptionally high resolution of breast structures, allowing precise differentiation between normal and pathological tissues. It is performed with the injection of a contrast agent, which helps assess the vascularization of lesions and identify suspicious areas. Additionally, breast MRI serves as an important tool in planning oncological surgeries and monitoring response to chemotherapy, especially in cases of invasive breast cancer.
An examination that provides detailed imaging of the pelvic region, including reproductive organs such as the prostate and uterus, the bladder, intestines, and soft tissues. The test is intended for diagnosing tumors, endometriosis, infections, uterine anomalies, or prostate diseases and is also suitable for surgical treatment planning and precise medical follow-up. It provides high-resolution imaging of organ structures, sometimes using contrast injection to enhance suspicious tissues and identify pathological processes. Another advantage of pelvic MRI is its ability to assess the extent of tumor or inflammatory process spread, thus aiding in the formulation of an optimal treatment plan.
An examination that provides a detailed visualization of the bile ducts and pancreas without the need for an invasive procedure. The test is typically performed in cases of suspected gallstones, obstructions, inflammations, tumors, or congenital anomalies. MRCP provides a clear image of the gallbladder, bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and liver, assisting in planning tailored treatments. A significant advantage of this test is its ability to detect anatomical and functional changes in the bile ducts and pancreas without exposing the patient to radiation. Additionally, MRCP allows for a comprehensive evaluation of the upper digestive system, making it a crucial tool in managing gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas diseases.
