What kind of preparation is required?<\/h2>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

In all cases, it is recommended that you consult your doctor about the details before having an MRI scan. The native test requires no special preparation, but you should not eat for 6 hours before an examination with contrast agent!<\/p>\n

It is important to know that due to the strong magnetic field, it is forbidden to bring any metal or device, object containing metal into the examination room! This also applies to jewellery and piercings in the body.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
