Understanding MRI Pelvis With Contrast in Bangalore

What is MRI Pelvis With Contrast in Bangalore?

An MRI Pelvis With Contrast test is a highly advanced, non-invasive, and completely safe imaging technique that uses a contrast agent (dye) and magnetic fields to create detailed images of the pelvic region, including pelvic organs (bladder, prostate, female reproductive organs, lymph nodes, large bowel, small bowel, and pelvic bones), blood vessels and tissues. The use of dye enhances the visibility of pelvic floor abnormalities, helping diagnose tumors, infections, or vascular issues. It is available at an affordable price near you in Bangalore with our partnered labs.

This test is often recommended when more precise visualization of the soft tissues, organs, and blood vessels is needed, especially in cases where standard imaging might not provide sufficient details. It helps diagnose conditions such as pelvic pain, tumors, infections, or other abnormalities in the reproductive organs and monitor changes in diseases like cancer over time. It is often recommended for individuals experiencing unexplained pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, or potential pelvic organ tumors. It can also be used to plan pelvic floor surgery or assess treatment response.

For this test, metallic items like coins, jewelry, and hearing aids should be removed before the MRI due to strong magnetic fields. Inform your doctor about any medical history, such as kidney disease, recent surgeries, allergies (especially to contrast agents), medications, pacemakers, or metal implants, or if you are pregnant.

What does MRI Pelvis With Contrast measure?

An MRI Pelvis With Contrast evaluates pelvic organs and tissues' detailed structure and function. It uses a special contrast agent (dye) to enhance images' clarity, helping detect abnormalities like tumors, cysts, infections, and inflammation. This test can assess the size, shape, and condition of organs such as the uterus, ovaries, prostate, bladder, and surrounding blood vessels, offering insights for diagnosing various medical conditions, planning surgeries, or monitoring disease progression. The contrast allows doctors to visualize blood flow better and distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues.
