Tests Details :
MRI Whole Spine is a comprehensive imaging test that provides detailed images of the entire spinal column, including the cervical (neck), thoracic (mid-back), and lumbar (lower back) regions. It evaluates vertebrae, intervertebral discs, spinal cord, nerves, and surrounding soft tissues.
This scan is highly effective in detecting conditions such as disc herniation, spinal stenosis, nerve compression, infections, tumors, degenerative changes, and traumatic injuries. It is particularly useful when symptoms involve multiple regions of the spine or when a complete spinal assessment is required.
MRI offers excellent soft tissue contrast without the use of ionizing radiation, making it a safe and reliable method for diagnosing and monitoring spinal conditions.
This test is recommended for individuals with:
- Chronic back or neck pain
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness
- Suspected disc problems
- Spinal injuries or trauma
- Suspected tumors or infections
- Neurological symptoms involving multiple areas
- Degenerative spine conditions
