Brain MRI

A Brain MRI is a safe, non-invasive imaging test that provides detailed pictures of your brain and surrounding structures. It helps diagnose conditions like headaches, seizures, or other neurological concerns, giving you and your doctor clear answers to guide your care.

Welcome to your upcoming brain MRI with the SIGNA™ Champion 1.5T scanner. We’re here to make your experience comfortable, safe, and stress-free. Below, you’ll find everything you need to know about your scan.

The MRI process is simple and comfortable. You’ll lie on a cushioned table that slides into the MRI machine, which uses magnets and radio waves to create images. The procedure takes about 20–30 minutes, and our team ensures you feel at ease throughout. We provide ear protection for the machine’s sounds and a call button to stay connected with our staff.

Your brain MRI will take about 20–30 minutes. Here’s what happens:

• You may hear tapping or humming noises, but earplugs or headphones will be provided.
• You’ll need to stay still, but our team will ensure you’re relaxed and supported.
• If contrast dye is needed, it will be given through a small IV to enhance image clarity.
