Pediatric MRI

This test uses a large magnet, it kind of looks like a spaceship, radio waves and a computer to create pictures of the inside of your body. For this test you’ll have to stay really still, but don’t worry, you won’t feel a thing. Make sure to think about what kind of music is your favorite before you get here, we will give you headphones so you can listen during your MRI, you will also be able to talk to the technologist. Be prepared to hear some different noises too, nothing to worry about this is the sound a super large magnet makes when talking to the computer, kind of cool.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are the lights in the MRI room so bright?
arrow pointing down on sdmi lv website

Some MRI exams require an IV injection, it is important for our technologists to have good lighting to be able to start an IV. If the light is too bright and uncomfortable please alert your technologist. We have eye/sleep masks available, these masks also help with claustrophobia and you get to keep it after your exam.

Why is it so cold in the MRI room?

MRI Machines use very powerful magnets to achieve the highest quality images. These magnets produce heat and need to be kept cold to function properly. If you feel too cold during your exam please alert your technologist and they will be happy to provide you with a blanket.
