Tests Details :
MRI – Cervical Spine is an advanced imaging procedure that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the cervical spine (neck region), including vertebrae, intervertebral discs, spinal cord, nerve roots, and surrounding soft tissues.
This scan is highly effective in diagnosing conditions such as disc herniation (slipped disc), spinal stenosis, nerve compression, cervical spondylosis, infections, inflammation, tumors, and trauma. It is commonly recommended for patients experiencing neck pain, stiffness, radiating arm pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness.
MRI provides excellent soft tissue contrast, allowing early detection of abnormalities that may not be visible on X-rays or CT scans. It plays a crucial role in treatment planning, surgical evaluation, and monitoring of spinal conditions. The procedure is safe, painless, and does not involve radiation.
This test is recommended for individuals:
- Experiencing persistent neck pain or stiffness
- With radiating pain to arms
- Having numbness, tingling, or weakness in arms
- Suspected of disc problems or nerve compression
- With spinal injuries or degenerative conditions
- Requiring detailed evaluation of the cervical spine
