2. Indications for software MRI


Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the extremities without magnetic contrast injection is indicated in the following cases:
Soft tissue tumor: Detecting, characterizing and excluding the tumor; Biopsy, tumor evaluation; Treatment and follow-up after treatment.

5. Complications and treatment


Complications in software magnetic resonance imaging are very rare. If there is, it is just a state of fear and agitation when pushing the table into the area with a magnetic field. This can be solved by encouraging and clearly explaining the process to make the patient feel more secure. In severe cases, sedation may be required.
Software MRI without injecting magnetic contrast is a useful imaging method because it provides high-resolution images, helping doctors to diagnose the stage of the disease, thereby directing the examination. and prompt treatment.
Vinmec International General Hospital put into use the magnetic resonance imaging machine 3.0 Tesla Silent technology. The 3.0 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging Machine with Silent technology from GE Healthcare (USA) offers the following benefits:
Silent technology is especially beneficial for children, the elderly, and medically ill patients. Healthy and weak patients and patients undergoing surgery Limit noise, create comfort and reduce stress for customers during the shooting process, help capture better quality images and shorten shooting time. Magnetic resonance imaging technology is the technology applied in the most popular and safest imaging method today because of its accuracy, non-invasiveness and non-X-ray use.
