What to Expect Before, During, and After Your MRI
Before Your MRI
We ensure that you are matched with the right clinic based on several factors, including:
- Location: Where you live or work.
- Timing: How soon you need the scan and your preferred schedule.
- Health: Whether you have any contraindications (e.g., metal implants, claustrophobia).
- Business Owners: If you plan to write off the scan for business-related reasons.
Once you’re matched, we’ll confirm the appointment and help arrange transportation if needed.
During Your MRI
Upon arrival at the clinic, you’ll be asked to remove any metal items, including jewelry and clothing with metal components. At some clinics, you may be provided with noise-canceling headphones to reduce the loud sounds from the MRI machine.
While the scan is painless, it can take some time (usually 30-60 minutes). Clinics may allow you to listen to music or watch videos during the scan to help pass the time.
After Your MRI
Results are typically available within 3-10 business days, depending on the clinic. You will receive a full report of the findings along with any follow-up recommendations. Annual scans are recommended to keep track of changes in your body and ensure you stay on top of your health.
