Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of an MRI in Delhi NCR varies significantly, from around ₹2,500 to ₹25,000. The final price depends on several factors like the body part, whether contrast dye is needed, and the machine’s power (1.5T vs. 3T).
| Type of MRI Scan | A General Idea of the Cost |
|---|---|
| MRI Brain (Plain) | ₹4,000 – ₹8,000 |
| MRI Knee (Plain) | ₹3,500 – ₹7,000 |
| MRI Spine (Lumbar) | ₹4,000 – ₹8,000 |

We believe in transparent pricing, so it’s always best to call us for a precise quote for your specific scan.
An MRI is one of the safest imaging tests available because it uses a magnetic field, not radiation. Our top priority is your safety, so we carefully check for a few things:
- Metal Implants: It’s crucial to inform us about any pacemakers or metal in your body. We have a thorough safety screening for this.
- Claustrophobia: We understand the machine can feel snug. We offer music, an emergency button, and have an Open MRI option for a more comfortable experience.
- Contrast Dye: The dye used is very safe. We always check your kidney health beforehand as a precaution.
This is a very important question. While a doctor’s prescription is traditionally required, we understand some patients may be certain about a follow-up scan they need.
At MRI Delhi, you can get a scan if you are sure of what you’re scanning. However, we strongly recommend consulting your doctor first.
Please remember, our role is to perform the scan and provide a detailed report. Your doctor interprets this report to provide a diagnosis and treatment plan.
Yes, absolutely! We are proud to say that we at MRI Delhi offer Open MRI for our patients.
An Open MRI is a fantastic alternative for anyone who feels anxious in tight spaces, has a larger body frame, or for children. We recommend discussing with your doctor if it’s suitable for your specific diagnostic needs.
An MRI scan is quicker than most people think! The entire process usually takes between 30 to 60 minutes. A scan of a single joint might be 20-30 minutes, while a more complex scan could take up to an hour.
The most important part is to relax and lie as still as possible to ensure the images are crystal clear.
Complete Guide to MRI Scans
Magnetic Resonance Imaging transforms how doctors examine the human body without surgery. This powerful technology uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed pictures of organs, tissues, and bones.
How MRI Technology Works?
An MRI machine contains a large magnet that creates a strong magnetic field around your body. Radio waves pulse through this field, causing hydrogen atoms in your body to produce signals.
The machine captures these signals and converts them into images that reveal internal structures with remarkable clarity.
The process involves no radiation, making it safer than CT scans for repeated examinations. The magnetic field strength varies between machines, measured in Tesla units, with most clinical scanners operating at 1.5T or 3T.
Types of MRI Scans and Applications
Brain MRI
Brain MRI examines the brain and surrounding tissues for tumors, strokes, infections, and neurological conditions. Doctors use this scan to diagnose multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and brain injuries.
Spine MRI
Spine MRI reveals herniated discs, spinal stenosis, tumors, and nerve compression. This scan helps evaluate back pain, numbness, and mobility issues.
Cardiac MRI
Cardiac MRI assesses heart structure and function, detecting heart disease, valve problems, and congenital defects. The scan shows blood flow patterns and heart muscle health.
Abdominal MRI
Abdominal MRI examines the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and other organs for tumors, cysts, and inflammatory conditions. This scan helps diagnose gallbladder disease and kidney stones.
Pelvic MRI
Pelvic MRI evaluates reproductive organs, bladder, and surrounding tissues. Doctors use this scan to investigate fertility issues, tumors, and pelvic pain.
Joint MRI
Joint MRI focuses on knees, shoulders, wrists, and other joints to identify torn ligaments, cartilage damage, and arthritis. Sports medicine relies heavily on these detailed images.
Breast MRI
Breast MRI provides detailed breast tissue examination, particularly useful for cancer screening in high-risk patients and evaluating suspicious findings from mammograms.
Whole Body MRI
Whole body MRI offers complete health screening, detecting cancers, metastases, and systemic conditions throughout multiple organ systems in a single examination.
MRI Scan Duration and Results
| MRI Type | Duration | Primary Results |
|---|---|---|
| Brain | 30-45 min | Tumors, strokes, multiple sclerosis, brain injuries |
| Spine | 20-30 min | Herniated discs, spinal stenosis, nerve compression |
| Cardiac | 45-60 min | Heart disease, valve problems, blood flow issues |
| Abdominal | 30-45 min | Liver disease, kidney stones, pancreatic conditions |
| Pelvic | 30-40 min | Reproductive organ disorders, bladder issues |
| Joint | 20-30 min | Ligament tears, cartilage damage, arthritis |
| Breast | 30-45 min | Breast cancer, tissue abnormalities |
| Whole Body | 60-90 min | Cancer screening, metastases detection |
Open vs Closed MRI Systems
Both open and closed MRI systems are available to meet different patient needs and medical requirements.
Closed MRI Scanners
Closed MRI machines feature a tunnel-like design with powerful magnets surrounding the patient. These systems produce superior image quality due to stronger magnetic fields, typically 1.5T to 3T.
Advantages of Closed MRI:
- Exceptional image clarity and detail
- Faster scan times
- Better diagnostic accuracy
- Suitable for complex examinations
Considerations for Closed MRI:
- May cause claustrophobia in some patients
- Produces loud noise during scanning
- Weight restrictions apply
- Less comfortable for anxious patients
Open MRI Scanners
Open MRI machines feature an open design with magnets above and below the patient, eliminating the enclosed tunnel. These systems operate at lower magnetic field strengths, typically 0.2T to 1.0T.
Advantages of Open MRI:
- Reduces claustrophobia significantly
- Accommodates larger patients comfortably
- More comfortable positioning options
- Less intimidating environment
- Allows family member presence during scan
Considerations for Open MRI:
- Lower image resolution compared to closed systems
- Longer scan times are required
- Limited to certain complex examinations
Patient Preparation
- Remove all metal objects including jewelry, watches, and clothing with metal fasteners.
- Inform the medical team about pacemakers, implants, or metal fragments in your body.
- Some examinations require contrast dye administered through an IV to enhance image quality.
- Arrive early to complete paperwork and change into a hospital gown.
- Discuss any anxiety or claustrophobia with the medical staff, as relaxation techniques or mild sedation can be provided if needed.
During the Scan
- Lie comfortably on a padded table that slides into the scanner.
- Headphones or earplugs reduce noise from the machine’s operational sounds.
- The technologist maintains communication through an intercom system and monitors you throughout the procedure.
- Some scans require brief breath-holding periods to prevent motion blur. Clear instructions will be provided about when to hold your breath and when to breathe normally.
After Your MRI
- Resume normal activities immediately after the scan unless sedation was administered.
- Drink plenty of water if contrast dye was used to help flush it from your system.
- Results typically become available within 24-48 hours.
- A qualified radiologist analyzes your images and prepares a detailed report for your referring physician.
- Schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor to discuss results and any necessary treatment plans.
Safety and Comfort
- MRI scans are extremely safe for most people. The magnetic field poses no known health risks, and the absence of radiation makes repeated scans possible when medically necessary.
- Certain implants and devices may affect MRI scanning protocols. Always inform the medical team about any metal in your body, including surgical clips, dental work, or medical devices.
- Modern facilities prioritize patient comfort with amenities like music during scans, comfortable positioning aids, and anxiety management support. Advanced scheduling systems minimize waiting times.
Advanced MRI Technology
- State-of-the-art MRI technology includes faster scanning techniques, improved image quality, and enhanced patient comfort features.
- Silent MRI sequences reduce noise levels significantly, while abbreviated protocols decrease scan times without compromising diagnostic accuracy.
- High-field 3T scanners provide exceptional image resolution for complex diagnoses, while open MRI systems ensure comfort for all patients.
- Contrast-enhanced imaging reveals detailed vascular and organ information when needed.
