MRI Nasopharynx & Oral Cavity Scan
Advanced Diagnostic Imaging at Madras Scan & Labs
An MRI of the Nasopharynx and Oral Cavity is a specialized, non-invasive imaging procedure used to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of the soft tissues in the head and neck region. This scan is vital for evaluating the tongue, salivary glands, throat, and nasal passages.
Why is this scan performed?
Tumor Evaluation: To detect, stage, or monitor growths in the oral cavity or nasopharynx.
Infection/Abscess: To identify deep-seated infections that are not visible during a physical exam.
Structural Issues: To investigate causes of swallowing difficulties or persistent throat pain.
Pre-Surgical Planning: Providing surgeons with a precise “map” of the anatomy.
Patient Preparation & Instructions
Fast if required: If a contrast dye (Gadolinium) is being used, you may be asked to fast for 3-4 hours prior.
Metal Removal: You must remove all metallic objects (jewelry, hairpins, watches) as the MRI uses a strong magnetic field.
Medical History: Inform our technicians if you have any metallic implants (pacemakers, stents) or if you are pregnant.
Duration: The scan typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.
