MRI Scans

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans are diagnostic procedures that use magnetic fields and radio pulses to create images of a patient's body without using X-ray radiation. MRIs are commonly used to create three-dimensional images of soft tissue around bones, inside organs, and blood vessels. MRIs are a painless, non-invasive solution to diagnosing problems inside the body.

What is an MRI Used For?

ADDLIFE offers MRI scans in Bangkok to create images for the whole body. The most common areas of the body that MRI scan checkups focus on are:

• Blood vessels
• Brain
• Spine, Muscles, and Joints
• Every organ
• The Liver, to identify liver disease
• Women's pelvises

Who Should Get a MRI?

MRI scans are a particular type of imaging technology that is not always suitable for diagnosis, especially if a patient has a pacemaker or other metal medical implants in their bodies. ADDLIFE recommends diagnostic MRI scan procedures in Bangkok for patients who:

• Have brain conditions (i.e., memory loss, abnormal loss of motor skills, chronic headache)
• Have a family history of Alzheimer's disease
• Are at risk of arteriosclerosis and cancer
• Drink alcohol
• Smoke cigarettes

The ADDLIFE Advantage

ADDLIFE provides MRI scans to patients in Bangkok using a SIGNA Explorer superconductive 1.5 Tesla magnet from General Electric without radiation. This state-of-the-art MRI machine creates high-quality images and is totally painless for the patient. However, patients should be aware that a standard MRI takes around 30-90 minutes, and they may feel some discomfort being in the MRI enclosure for that long.

MRI scans at ADDLIFE are offered at the same price as Government Hospitals; ADDLIFE endeavors to keep the cost for an MRI scan in Bangkok affordable. Patients at ADDLIFE gain the extra benefit of receiving the quality of service they would expect at a private hospital but at a wholly affordable price.

MRI Brain Scans

The brain is a complex and vital organ. If at any time you feel that your brain is not functioning normally, and you start to experience symptoms such as chronic headaches, loss of motor skills, or memory loss, do not delay in scheduling an appointment for an MRI brain scan at ADDLIFE in Bangkok. Catching any brain abnormality early is essential.
