MRI JOINT PLAIN ANY ONE REGION(SHOULDER/ELBOW/WRIST, HIP/KNEE/ANKLE)

This is a detailed MRI scan of a specific joint (Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist, Hip, Knee, or Ankle) without contrast to evaluate: Bones Cartilage Ligaments Tendons Soft tissues Why Is This MRI Done? Detects soft tissue injuries (ligament, tendon, and cartilage damage) Identifies joint inflammation, arthritis, and synovitis Evaluates sports injuries, fractures, and degenerative conditions Non-invasive and does not use radiation (unlike X-rays or CT scans)

MRI JOINT WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST ANY ONE REGION(SHOULDER/ELBOW/WRIST, HIP/KNEE/ANKLE)

MRI Joint With and Without Contrast – Any One Region (Shoulder / Elbow / Wrist / Hip / Knee / Ankle) This is a detailed MRI scan of a specific joint (Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist, Hip, Knee, or Ankle) performed both before and after contrast injection to provide enhanced imaging of bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and soft tissues.

MRI ORBITS PLAIN

An MRI Orbits Plain is a non-contrast MRI scan focused on the eye structures (orbits) to evaluate the optic nerves, eye muscles, eyeball, and surrounding tissues for abnormalities. What Does This MRI Evaluate? ✅ Optic Nerve – Detects inflammation, swelling (optic neuritis), or compression from tumors. ✅ Eye Muscles – Assesses muscle disorders related to thyroid eye disease or muscle inflammation. ✅ Eyeball (Globe) & Retina – Identifies retinal detachment, bleeding, or fluid buildup. ✅ Orbital Tumors or Masses – Evaluates for benign or malignant tumors in or around the eye. ✅ Sinus and Skull Base – Checks for infections, cysts, or bony abnormalities near the orbits.

MRI ORBITS WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST

An MRI Orbits With and Without Contrast is a detailed MRI scan of the eye structures (orbits), performed before and after contrast injection, to provide a clearer evaluation of the optic nerves, eye muscles, eyeball, and surrounding tissues. What Does This MRI Evaluate? ✅ Optic Nerve – Detects inflammation, swelling (optic neuritis), or compression from tumors. ✅ Eye Muscles – Assesses muscle disorders like thyroid eye disease or muscle inflammation. ✅ Eyeball (Globe) & Retina – Identifies retinal detachment, fluid buildup, or bleeding. ✅ Orbital Tumors or Masses – Evaluates benign or malignant tumors in or around the eye. ✅ Blood Vessels – Identifies vascular abnormalities, aneurysms, or venous thrombosis. ✅ Sinus and Skull Base – Checks for infections, cysts, or bony abnormalities near the orbits.

MRI PELVIS PLAIN

An MRI Pelvis Plain is a non-contrast MRI scan that provides a detailed evaluation of the organs, bones, muscles, and soft tissues in the pelvic region, including the bladder, reproductive organs, rectum, lymph nodes, and surrounding structures. What Does This MRI Evaluate? ✅ Male & Female Reproductive Organs – Assesses uterus, ovaries, prostate, and testes for abnormalities like cysts, tumors, or infections. ✅ Bladder & Urinary Tract – Identifies bladder wall thickening, tumors, or inflammation. ✅ Muscles, Joints & Soft Tissues – Evaluates pelvic floor dysfunction, hernias, or muscle injuries. ✅ Lymph Nodes – Detects enlarged or abnormal lymph nodes, which may indicate infection or cancer. ✅ Pelvic Bone & Joint Issues – Identifies hip joint degeneration, fractures, sacroiliitis, or bone tumors. ✅ Rectum & Lower Bowel – Assesses for inflammation, masses, or structural abnormalities.

MRI PELVIS WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST

An MRI Pelvis With and Without Contrast is a detailed imaging scan that evaluates the organs, bones, muscles, and soft tissues in the pelvic region before and after contrast injection. This provides clearer visualization of abnormalities such as tumors, infections, and vascular issues. What Does This MRI Evaluate? ✅ Male & Female Reproductive Organs – Detects uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, prostate abnormalities, and testicular masses. ✅ Bladder & Urinary Tract – Identifies bladder tumors, inflammation, and structural abnormalities. ✅ Pelvic Infections & Inflammation – Evaluates abscesses, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), or prostatitis. ✅ Lymph Nodes – Assesses for enlarged lymph nodes due to infection, cancer, or inflammatory conditions. ✅ Pelvic Bone & Joint Issues – Detects hip joint degeneration, fractures, and sacroiliitis. ✅ Soft Tissue Tumors & Cancer Staging – Differentiates between benign and malignant growths. ✅ Blood Flow & Vascular Abnormalities – Identifies tumor vascular supply, blood clots, and pelvic congestion syndrome.

MRI PERINEUM PLAIN

An MRI Perineum Plain is a non-contrast MRI scan that provides a detailed evaluation of the perineal region, which includes the muscles, soft tissues, nerves, and organs between the anus and genitals. It is used to diagnose various conditions related to the pelvic floor, perineal trauma, infections, and tumors. What Does This MRI Evaluate? ✅ Perineal Muscles & Soft Tissues – Assesses muscle injuries, abscesses, or structural defects. ✅ Pelvic Floor Disorders – Identifies pelvic organ prolapse, muscle dysfunction, or nerve compression. ✅ Perianal Fistulas & Abscesses – Detects fistulas, anal abscesses, or inflammatory conditions. ✅ Tumors & Cysts – Evaluates benign or malignant masses in the perineal region. ✅ Trauma & Post-Surgical Changes – Assesses perineal tears, scarring, or complications from surgery.

MRI PERINEUM WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST

An MRI Perineum With and Without Contrast is a detailed imaging scan that evaluates the muscles, soft tissues, nerves, and organs in the perineal region both before and after contrast injection. This provides better visualization of infections, tumors, and vascular abnormalities. What Does This MRI Evaluate? ✅ Perineal Muscles & Soft Tissues – Assesses muscle injuries, structural defects, and inflammation. ✅ Pelvic Floor Disorders – Detects muscle weakness, nerve compression, or prolapse conditions. ✅ Perianal Fistulas & Abscesses – Evaluates infected tracts (common in Crohn’s disease) or deep abscesses. ✅ Tumors & Cysts – Differentiates benign and malignant growths, including soft tissue sarcomas. ✅ Post-Surgical & Trauma Assessment – Identifies scarring, surgical complications, or post-injury damage. ✅ Vascular Abnormalities – Examines blood flow changes, abnormal vessels, or tumors with high vascularity.

MRI PNS (PARANASAL SINUSES) PLAIN

An MRI PNS Plain is a non-contrast MRI scan used to evaluate the paranasal sinuses, nasal passages, and surrounding structures for abnormalities without the use of contrast dye. What Does This MRI Evaluate? ✅ Sinus Infections (Sinusitis) – Detects acute or chronic sinus inflammation, fluid buildup, and sinus blockages. ✅ Nasal Polyps or Cysts – Identifies abnormal growths inside the sinuses. ✅ Deviated Nasal Septum – Evaluates nasal structure abnormalities that may cause breathing difficulties. ✅ Mucosal Thickening – Assesses swelling of the sinus lining due to allergies, infections, or inflammation. ✅ Fungal Infections – Helps detect fungal sinusitis, which may not be clearly seen on CT scans. ✅ Orbital or Skull Base Involvement – Checks if sinus infections or tumors are spreading to nearby structures.
