MRI

No it should be out of system in 2-7 days, but for safety they say 30 days.

Yes you can have an MRI with Harrinton rod in your lumbar spine. Harrington rods are made of titanium making it safe to enter an MRI Scanner.

An average person cannot buy an MRI machine, as they are reserved for medical purposes. If one was to find an MRI machine for sale, it would be very expensive to buy.

MRI films are kept as long as necessary, especially if you see the same doctor. You can have records transferred and then your new doctor will have them. They are consistently kept on record for years before they are not needed.

There are two sorts of MRI scanner - permanent and superconducting. The computing components of the scanners (software etc.) can be turned off simply as you would any computer. However, if you're referring to the magnetic field, there are different answers for each scanner.

A permanent magnet (often called an open magnet) cannot be switched off. It is made of an alloy which has been exposed to a magnetic field and is thus made magnetic itself. You can't switch it off any more than you can switch off a fridge magnet.

A superconducting electromagnet more commonly found in hospitals can go through a process called "quenching". This can happen accidentally very occasionally or deliberately in an emergency. If, for example, someone was trapped between a large magnetic object and the scanner, the operator can hit the quench button. This blows valves leading from the scanner to the outside of the building, venting the liquid helium used to supercool the magnet in a gaseous form, and over several seconds the magnetic field will dissipate. This is to be avoided and only done in an absolute emergency.

The engineer can also perform a controlled quench for certain types of work to be done, but again, this is rarely done as it can take some time to get the scanner up and running again.

So, with just one or two exceptions, the magnetic field to an MRI scanner is never switched off, even if the computer side of it is shut down e.g. at the end of the working day.

To the best of my knowledge, they don't. Magnetic Resonance machines have traditionally used more or less "off the shelf" CPUs; Varian VXRs used to use Motorola 68000s, and ChemMagnetics had an instrument built around a MIPS chip. Neither of these were particularly "special" - the M68k was the same chip used in early Macintosh computers, and the MIPS was the heart of the old SGI workstations.

Usually it can because fibrosis will be dark on T1 and T2 weighted sequences (except in the liver). Granulation tissue is variable but not dark on both, and is vascularized, so it will enhace early after contrast administration. Fibrosis only enhances late after contrast administration.

a patient is exposed to short bursts of powerful magnetic fields and radio waves from electromagnets. MRI images do not utilize potentially harmful ionizing radiation generated by three-dimensional x-ray computed tomography (CT) scans

Received phone quotes for both with and without contrast. 10/11/2012

$450. Lt hip w/o contrast

$650. Hip with and without contrast

another facility quoted

$805 for with and without contrast

I don't really understand what you mean by "a half inch to through out the neck", but depending on the exact location, it could be a number of things.

If it's on the side of your neck, either below your jaw or just behind your collar bone, it could be a swollen lymph node, which is typically a result of your body fighting off an infection. Typically my lymph nodes will swell up when I have a cough/cold, but they've even grown to golf ball-size when I contracted cat scratch fever.

If its your Adam's apple that is swollen, then it could be a goiter, which is a swollen thyroid gland caused by an iodine deficiency.

Firstly all the other situations or medical conditions that would keep someone from having a MRI (Cat) scan still apply to welders.

of concern would be the chance of having ferrous metal in the body of the welder.

It could indeed rip right out of the body during the scan. Myself I would be worried about my eyes.

After mri,on lower spine what does clinical correlation mean

Not directly. I suppose if you get very stessed out over the MRI, that might cause a temporary reduction.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of body scanning which uses magnetic waves to scan your body. Taking metals like iron and aluminium etc will make you in danger because the room were this machine stays is fully air conditioned and high magnetic field. The scanning coat of a MRI a scanning is 6000 rupees ( Indian rupee), but the money also depends on the part were you want to scan.

There are different types of MRIs, including with and without contrast. Typical cost for uninsured patient goes from $1100 to $2700 .

However, if you only need the simpler MRI (without contrast), you can find prices around $500, including this site serving the Pacific Northwest, .

There were 304 according to a report issued in March 2011

Grossly unremarkable means there is nothing interesting to talk about, its normal.

If an acoustic neuroma is strongly suspected then magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is usually performed. The MRI is a very accurate evaluation that is able to detect nearly 100% of acoustic neuromas

MRI or magnetic resonance imaging shows muscle and other tissues that a plain film X ray doesn't show.

Yes, because a MRI scan is a very strong scan and can see if there is anything wrong with you,if you spot it before then yes,you can. x

Yes, MRI studies are more enhanced today, thanks to the new technology that people keep on inventing. We can certainly see and identify more problems, if there are any, than when the MRI scan was first used and invented. :)

I am 25 years old, have been wearig glasses/contacts since i was 7 years old. The optician hasn't noticed anythiing it was a nurologist that noticed it when i saw her about something completely different.

Is an mentor alpha penile implant mri safe

NO, it's not so far.
