Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the optimal non-invasive method of evaluating the brain, helping doctors detect and evaluate abnormalities of the brain. Normally, brain MRI does not require contrast injection, however, in some diseases, radiologists often prescribe imaging and contrast injection to clarify damaged structures.

The use of contrast agents in some commonly used diagnostic imaging techniques offers certain advantages. However, there are still cases of anaphylactic shock to contrast agents.

Contrast-enhanced intracranial magnetic resonance angiography is a type of brain magnetic resonance that focuses on intracranial blood vessels while using contrast agents, providing very clear images of blood vessels and cerebral blood flow, helping to accurately assess cases of suspected neurovascular disease.

The use of contrast agents in diagnostic imaging techniques brings great value in the diagnosis of diseases, especially gastrointestinal diseases. In addition to the benefits of contrast agents, there may be complications related to contrast agents, especially anaphylactic shock, which can be rapidly fatal. Therefore, early detection and timely treatment of complications related to contrast agents is extremely necessary.

Magnetic resonance imaging of the lower limb arteries with contrast injection is often prescribed by specialists for patients suspected of having diseases related to blood vessels, inflammation, tumors, etc. This is one of the advanced methods today and is widely used in developed countries around the world.

Whole body magnetic resonance angiography plays an important role in accurately diagnosing and monitoring the progression of arterial diseases such as dissection, stenosis, and aneurysm. Learn more about the whole body magnetic resonance angiography procedure without contrast injection to best prepare before proceeding.

Computed tomography (CT) of the ear and petrous bone is the most valuable imaging method in the clinical examination of diseases related to the ear and petrous bone. This method can evaluate the anatomical morphology, anatomical details, and bone diseases such as incus hypoplasia, ossicular chain resorption, and ankylosis of the malleolus and incus joints.

Brain perfusion computed tomography is a technique that helps assess the level of cerebral perfusion in cases with abnormalities or suspected abnormalities of cerebral perfusion. This is a valuable technique in diagnosing cerebrovascular diseases, especially in cerebral infarction in the first hours, helping doctors make appropriate diagnosis and treatment.

Breast MRI is a modern diagnostic imaging method that uses magnetic fields, radio waves and computers to create detailed images of the breast. This technique helps screen, diagnose and monitor treatment of breast diseases. So when is the right time to have a breast MRI?

Contrast-enhanced CT scan of the brain is an advanced imaging technique widely used in the diagnosis of neurological diseases. In particular, CT scan of the brain is very effective in assessing the degree of vascular proliferation of tumors, the extent of lesions such as encephalitis, meningitis, and brain parenchymal infection.

Detecting diseases related to the biliary tract has become easier thanks to the advancement of science. And the method of X-ray through the bile duct through Kehr is considered a method that brings high value in diagnosis as well as treatment after biliary drainage surgery. Is it necessary to have an X-ray after removing the biliary drainage tube?
