Test Code

MRI Chest is a non-invasive imaging test used to obtain detailed images of chest structures such as lungs, heart, pleura, mediastinum, chest wall, and blood vessels. It is particularly useful for assessing soft tissue abnormalities, tumors, infections, congenital anomalies, and inflammatory conditions of the thoracic region. MRI provides excellent soft tissue contrast without radiation exposure, making it suitable for follow-up imaging and specific clinical scenarios where CT is not preferred. Contrast dye may be administered to enhance lesion characterization and vascular assessment. This scan helps doctors in accurate diagnosis, staging of diseases, treatment planning, and monitoring response to therapy.
