Know more about this test

The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Screening Whole Spine is a highly advanced, noninvasive, painless imaging technique that provides detailed images of the whole spinal column, including the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine sections. It helps doctors diagnose and monitor conditions such as spinal injuries, degenerative disc diseases, tumors, infections, and nerve compression. It is commonly used to assess back pain, neurological disorders, or post-surgical recovery. It is available at an affordable price in Lucknow with our partnered labs.

This test is recommended for individuals with chronic back pain, unexplained neurological symptoms, or those suspected of having conditions affecting the entire spine. However, it's important to note that this test is a screening tool that looks for possible abnormalities but doesn't identify the exact type. If a problem is found, a more detailed MRI of the specific area can be done, and the radiologist will mark the exact spot to focus on.

For this test, remove metallic items like coins, jewelry, and hearing aids before the MRI due to strong magnetic fields that can pull on any metallic objects. Inform your radiologist about any metallic implants or pacemakers and let them know if you are pregnant.

Preparation for this test

What does MRI Screening Whole Spine (MRI) measure?

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an imaging test that uses a combination of powerful magnet, radio waves, and a computer to create detailed pictures of organs and structures inside the body. The MRI Screening Whole Spine (MRI) assesses detailed structural and functional components of the spine, including the vertebrae, spinal cord, intervertebral discs, and the soft tissues around them. The scan takes high-resolution images which assist the doctors in inspecting the state of the spinal column for any irregularities, traumas, or degenerative processes. It gives accurate data regarding the positioning of the spine, the state of the spinal discs, and the existence of any tumors, inflammation, or nerve compression. By identifying alterations in spinal structures, the MRI scan aids in the diagnosis of spinal conditions, injuries, and diseases that may affect the spine's mobility and thus bring on persistent pain.

What am I expected to do during the MRI?
