Understanding MRI Whole Spine With Contrast


What is MRI Whole Spine With Contrast?

MRI Whole Spine With Contrast is used to visualize the spinal column (backbone) and the surrounding soft tissues like muscles using a small amount of radiation.  Prior to your MRI scan, you will be injected with a contrast agent, typically composed of gadolinium, through an IV injection. This contrast will help highlight specific areas of the spine on the results of the MRI scan and differentiate between certain conditions It should be noted that contrast agents do not affect your internal organs, they simply change the way that the MRI scan sees your internal structures.

 

The MRI can find the changes in the spine and other tissues. MRI scans are needed when other imaging tests like X-ray and CT scan fails to obtain any critical information. MRI scanning of the whole spine is done to find the cause of neck pain or back pain. It also helps in the diagnosis of any injury or fracture of the spine and predicts any suspected tumors or infections of the spinal bones.

The MRI scan uses strong magnetic and radio waves to create detailed 3D multiple images. However, individuals with kidney disease and those who are pregnant should let their doctor know before getting an MRI with contrast. Common side effects of contrast materials are generally mild and may include a rash, nausea, and vomiting.
