Service Overview

The Brain MRI/MRA Scan is used to assess the brain and its blood vessels, helping to identify conditions like strokes, aneurysms, tumors, and neurological disorders. The MRI provides clear images of brain tissue, while MRA focuses on blood vessels.

Key Statistics

  • 6.8 million people in the U.S. have an unruptured brain aneurysm.
  • Approximately 30,000 people suffer a brain aneurysm rupture each year.
  • Brain aneurysm ruptures are fatal in about 50% of cases.

Risk Factors

  • Older age
  • High blood pressure
  • Smoking
  • Family history of brain aneurysms

Benefits of Screening

  • Non-invasive imaging of brain tissue and blood vessels.
  • Early detection of strokes and aneurysms can prevent severe damage.
  • Helps in diagnosing neurological conditions like Alzheimer’s and multiple sclerosis.

What This Screening Detects

  • Strokes and aneurysms.
  • Brain tumors.
  • Neurological conditions affecting the brain.
  • A bulge in a blood vessel.
  • A narrowing or blockage in a blood vessel.

MRI vs MRA: Understanding the Difference

What Does an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) Show?

An MRI is used to help doctors examine various areas of the body, including the chest, abdomen, and other internal organs.

What Does an MRA (Magnetic Resonance Angiography) Show?

An MRA is specifically designed for examining blood vessels.

Preparing for Your MRI:

Remove all metal objects before the MRI as the machine’s magnetic field can attract metal.

Preparing for Your MRA:

You may be instructed by your doctor to avoid eating or drinking for 4 to 6 hours before the test.
