Service Providers for MRI of Dorso Lumbar Spine
MRI of the dorso-lumbar spine is a diagnostic procedure that evaluates both the thoracic (middle back) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine. It is used to diagnose conditions affecting the vertebrae, discs, spinal cord, and nerve roots, such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, fractures, tumors, infections, and sciatica. During the procedure, the patient lies still in an MRI scanner, which uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images. Contrast dye may be used to enhance visibility. Preparation is minimal, though fasting may be required if contrast is used. The procedure is safe, with minimal risks, and provides valuable diagnostic information for treatment planning.
