MRI Whole Body (MRI) near me in Kolkata

A Whole Body MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a non-invasive and painless imaging scan. It produces detailed images of the entire body. It uses powerful magnetic fields, radio waves, and a computer to produce detailed images to scan parts of the head, neck, chest, abdomen, pelvis, spine, bones, muscles, lymph nodes, and surrounding soft tissues. It does not involve any radiation, unlike X-rays and CT scans, and thus is safer than certain other imaging examinations.

Whole Body MRI is particularly useful when physicians require a complete picture of the body to identify concealed diseases or monitor the progression of a diagnosed disease.

While being scanned, you will be lying on a flat table that glides slowly into a tunnel-shaped machine. The procedure is painless. You will also experience some loud banging or thudding noises coming from the machine, which is normal. To comfort you better, the staff may offer earplugs or headphones.

You need to remain quiet throughout the scan to ensure that the images are clear. After completing the scan, you can resume your normal activities.
