Care Type

Outpatient

An MRI scan is ordered to investigate unexplained neurological symptoms, joint or ligament injuries, suspected tumours, or spinal conditions where detailed soft tissue imaging is needed beyond what an X-ray or CT can provide. It is also used to evaluate organs like the liver, brain, and reproductive organs when other tests suggest an abnormality needing further characterisation.

Signs You May Need MRI Scan

Patients are typically referred for an MRI when they experience persistent or unexplained headaches, numbness or weakness suggesting a nerve or spinal issue, chronic joint pain or suspected ligament and cartilage injury, or unexplained pain that hasn't responded to initial treatment. Abnormal findings on a prior X-ray or ultrasound needing more detailed evaluation is another common reason for ordering an MRI.

Types of MRI Scan

MRI scans can be performed without contrast for general structural imaging, or with an injected contrast agent (gadolinium) to highlight blood vessels, inflammation, or tumours more clearly. Specialised protocols exist for different body regions, such as brain MRI, spine MRI, joint MRI, and functional MRI, each tailored to answer specific clinical questions about that area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is an MRI scan safe?

Yes, MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves rather than radiation, making it a safe option for most patients, though those with certain metal implants or pacemakers need to inform their doctor beforehand.

How much does an MRI scan cost in India?

Costs vary by body part and whether contrast is used, generally ranging from Rs 4,000 to Rs 12,000, with full-body or specialised scans costing more.

Is the MRI machine noisy or uncomfortable?

The machine does make loud tapping or knocking sounds during scanning, for which earplugs are usually provided, and some patients feel mild claustrophobia in the narrow tunnel, which can be managed with mild sedation if needed.

How long does an MRI take?

Depending on the body part and number of sequences needed, an MRI typically takes 30 to 90 minutes, during which you'll need to stay as still as possible.

When will I get my MRI results?

A radiologist typically reviews the images and prepares a report within 24 hours, though your referring doctor will interpret the findings in the context of your specific symptoms.
