MRI Dorso-Lumbar Spine (DL) with Contrast (MRI)

The MRI Dorso-Lumbar Spine (DL) with Contrast (MRI) creates detailed cross-sectional pictures of the various parts of your spine. Magnetic fields, radio waves, and computers are utilized in this process. The dorsal spine (T1-T12) is made up of 12 vertebrae in the thoracic area, while the lumbar spine (L1-L5) begins at the spinal cord's end. A contrast dye is used in MRI studies to aid and detect internal tissues and blood vessels on the final images, which might cause allergies.

The MRI scan produces clear soft-tissue images and allows the doctor to check a wide range of biological tissue, including the spinal cord, vertebral discs, surrounding tissues, and nerves, as well as distinguish between normal and diseased tissue. MRI scans might last anything from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
