Know more about this test

The Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Dorsal Spine test is a highly advanced, non-invasive, painless imaging technique that uses magnetic and radio waves to create detailed images of the mid-back area, focusing on the thoracic vertebrae, spinal cord, and surrounding tissues. It is available at an affordable price near you in Noida with our partnered labs.

This test is advised for individuals experiencing persistent back pain, trauma, or symptoms related to spinal cord compression, such as numbness or weakness in the limbs. It helps diagnose conditions such as herniated discs, congenital spine deformities, infections, inflammation, tumors, or spinal injuries that could impact mobility and overall body functioning.

Metallic items like coins, jewelry, and hearing aids should be removed before the MRI, as strong magnetic fields can pull on any metallic object. Inform your radiologist about any metallic implants or pacemakers and let them know if you are pregnant.

Preparation for this test

Understanding MRI Dorsal Spine (MRI)

The MRI of the Dorsal Spine test provides clear and detailed images of the thoracic region of the spine, located in the upper and middle back. This test helps visualize spinal structures, including the vertebrae, spinal discs, nerves, and the spinal cord. It is advised for individuals experiencing persistent back pain, trauma, or symptoms related to spinal cord compression, such as numbness or weakness in the limbs.

A thoracic or dorsal spine MRI does not involve radiation exposure, unlike a CT scan or X-ray, making it safer for repeated use. This test utilizes advanced magnetic resonance technology in either open MRI (less confining) or closed MRI (high resolution) systems to provide precise imaging of the dorsal spine.

Before undergoing an MRI dorsal spine test, remove metal objects like metallic coins, jewelry, metal wrist watches, metallic keys, dentures, or hearing aids, as the MRI uses strong magnetic fields and can pull on any metallic objects. Wear loose-comfortable clothing without metal fasteners. Inform your doctor about your pregnancy, medical history, allergies, medications, pacemaker, metal implants, etc., before going for an MRI test. If you are either too claustrophobic or overweight to undergo a traditional closed MRI, discuss sedation or open MRI options with your doctor.

Interpretation of test results requires expert guidance. Therefore, do not self-medicate solely based on these test results. Always consult the doctor to understand your test results correctly.

What does MRI Dorsal Spine (MRI) measure?

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an imaging procedure that combines a large magnet, radio frequencies, and a computer to produce detailed images of organs and structures within the body. The MRI Dorsal Spine (MRI) test (also known as the thoracic spine) provides detailed images of the middle portion of your spine. This test is used to detect issues such as herniated discs, spinal cord compression, fractures, inflammation, tumors, or degenerative conditions like arthritis. It helps doctors evaluate the health of the bones, discs, nerves, and surrounding tissues to determine the cause of pain, numbness, or other spinal problems. This non-invasive scan can also reveal the cause of neck pain, nerve-related symptoms, or spinal injuries, helping diagnose potential spinal abnormalities and guide care strategies.
