Service Providers for MRI of Brain & MRA of Neck
MRI of the brain and MRA of the neck is a combined imaging procedure used to assess both the brain's structure and the blood vessels in the neck. The MRI of the brain provides detailed images to help diagnose conditions like tumors, strokes, or neurodegenerative diseases. The MRA of the neck focuses on the blood vessels, such as the carotid and vertebral arteries, to detect issues like blockages, aneurysms, or stenosis. During the procedure, you will lie still inside an MRI scanner, and a contrast dye may be injected to enhance the images. No special preparation is typically needed, although fasting may be required if contrast is used. Risks are minimal, with potential allergic reactions to the contrast dye and mild discomfort from staying still. The results provide a comprehensive view of both brain and neck vascular health.
