  2. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging...

    B030ZZZ. ICD-9-CM. 88.91. OPS-301 code. 3-800, 3-820. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to produce high quality two-dimensional or three-dimensional images of the brain and brainstem as well as the cerebellum without the use of ionizing radiation (X-rays) or radioactive tracers.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_Procedural_Terminology

    The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code set is a procedural code set developed by the American Medical Association (AMA). It is maintained by the CPT Editorial Panel. [1] The CPT code set describes medical, surgical, and diagnostic services and is designed to communicate uniform information about medical services and procedures among ...

  4. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    003335. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to generate images of the organs in the body. MRI does not involve X-rays or the use of ...

  5. Magnetic resonance neurography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_neurography

    However, the patient will generally have a slightly longer time in the scanner compared to a routine MRI scan. Magnetic resonance neurography can only be performed in 1.5 tesla and 3 tesla cylindrical type scanners and can't really be done effectively in lower power "open" MR scanners - this can pose significant challenges for claustrophobic ...

  6. Medical imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_imaging

    007451. Medical imagingis the technique and process of imagingthe interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention, as well as visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues (physiology). Medical imaging seeks to reveal internal structures hidden by the skin and bones, as well as to diagnose and treat disease.

  7. Gadopiclenol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadopiclenol

    Gadopiclenol. Gadopiclenol, sold under the brand name Elucirem among others, is a contrast agent used with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect and visualize lesions with abnormal vascularity in the central nervous system and in the body. [2][7] Gadopiclenol is a paramagnetic macrocyclic non-ionic complex of gadolinium.

  8. MRI pulse sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI_pulse_sequence

    An MRI pulse sequence in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a particular setting of pulse sequences and pulsed field gradients, resulting in a particular image appearance. [ 1 ] A multiparametric MRI is a combination of two or more sequences, and/or including other specialized MRI configurations such as spectroscopy .

  9. Safety of magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_of_magnetic...

    All patients are reviewed for contraindications prior to MRI scanning. Medical devices and implants are categorized as MR Safe, MR Conditional or MR Unsafe: [6] MR-Safe – The device or implant is completely non-magnetic, non-electrically conductive, and non-RF reactive, eliminating all of the primary potential threats during an MRI procedure.
