An MRI Perfusion helps assess a wide range of abnormalities of the brain, including tumours, growths, infections, and vascular and degenerative diseases. It assists in grading and assessing tumours and treatment guidance and evaluation of treatment response in both stroke and cancer patients.

Perfusion refers to fluid transfer from the lymphatic system or blood vessels to an organ or tissue. Perfusion information obtained from MRI can be used to calculate tissue properties related to blood flow.

The MRI Perfusion method is widely available and relatively easy to use. Usually, the test takes 30 to 60 minutes to complete, but it can take up to 2 hours. MR perfusion imaging requires IV infusion of a gadolinium-based contrast agent at a relatively rapid injection rate.
