Indications for MRI under anesthesia
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) under anesthesia is recommended for children, people with certain medical conditions such as Parkinson’s disease or claustrophobia, and in cases where a long-term scan is required.
Indications for MRI under anesthesia:
- The patient's inability to remain still for the required time due to age, medical conditions, or psychological issues.
- The need for long or multiple scans where stillness is a key requirement.
- Situations requiring high scanning accuracy and movement can distort the results.
Importantly! Before an MRI scan under anesthesia, all medical and anesthetic aspects, including the risks and benefits of the procedure, should be thoroughly discussed with the doctor. Patients must provide a referral from a doctor and follow all instructions to prepare for anesthesia.
Preparation for the procedure
- It is important to have a preliminary consultation with an anesthesiologist to discuss anesthesia details and assess the risks.
- The patient must provide a complete medical history, including information about any medical conditions, allergies, current medications, and past surgeries.
- Additional tests and examinations may be required to assess overall health.
- The patient should abstain from eating and drinking for 6-8 hours before the procedure to avoid the risk of aspiration during anesthesia.
- As with a conventional MRI, all metal objects and removable medical devices must be removed.
Importantly! When scheduling an MRI scan under anesthesia, EasyMed specialists will provide detailed instructions and recommendations on preparing for the procedure. Our managers will accompany you every step, ensuring comfort and safety during the entire process.
The process of MRI under anesthesia
MRI under anesthesia with a contrast agent
MRI under anesthesia with contrast medium is a specialized diagnostic approach in special clinical cases. This procedure combines the advantages of contrast enhancement for better visualization of internal structures with the use of anesthesia to ensure the comfort and immobility of the patient.
Contraindications
MRI under anesthesia is a specialized procedure performed in special cases and requires careful attention and preparation. It includes standard MRI contraindications, as well as additional restrictions associated with the use of anesthesia:
Relative contraindications:
- Allergic reactions to the components of anesthesia.
- Chronic lung or heart disease that can complicate the anesthesia process.
- Mental disorders in which the patient cannot follow the doctor's instructions.
Absolute contraindications:
- Presence of ferromagnetic implants or electronic devices (e.g., pacemakers) in the body.
- Severe renal or hepatic function abnormalities may affect the metabolism and excretion of anesthetic drugs.
- Acute infectious diseases or high body temperature.
- Severe blood clotting disorders.
When performing MRI with contrast under anesthesia:
- Allergy to the contrast agent.
- Renal function disorders.
Importantly! EasyMed specialists provide comprehensive support at all stages of the preparation and execution of an MRI under anesthesia, including preliminary consultations.
Safety of the procedure
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) under anesthesia is a non-invasive technique that does not involve ionizing radiation, and it is especially relevant for examining children or patients with certain medical conditions.
MRI under anesthesia is performed as safely as conventional MRI; however, adding anesthesia requires additional precautions and monitoring of the patient’s condition. The frequency of MRI under anesthesia is determined individually, depending on the medical indications and characteristics of the patient. Usually, such procedures are performed infrequently due to the need for anesthesia.
In general, MRI under anesthesia provides high-quality images for diagnosis without causing discomfort to the patient, making it a valuable tool in certain clinical cases.
