Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Scan Preparation
Do not wear make up or hair clips. Please remove all drug patches. Advise our staff if you are claustrophobic, have a pacemaker/defibrillator, implants, artificial heart valves, metal or shrapnel. Bring the ID card with you if you have any heart valve, stent, clip or filter in your body. If you cannot find your ID card, contact the doctor who placed the device. If you are to receive intravenous contrast please do not eat 4-6 hours before your test. If you prefer to listen to your own music, bring a CD.
