Cine MRI of Cysternogram Price in Bangladesh

What is Cine MRI of Cysternogram?

A Cine MRI of Cisternogram is an advanced imaging technique that combines Cine MRI (real-time dynamic imaging) with a cisternogram (study of the cerebrospinal fluid [CSF] pathways in the brain and spine). The procedure typically involves injecting a contrast agent into the CSF and using MRI to capture the movement of the fluid through the brain's ventricles, cisterns, and spinal canal over time.

This is useful in diagnosing conditions like CSF leaks, hydrocephalus, or other disorders affecting the flow or absorption of cerebrospinal fluid. The Cine MRI allows real-time visualization of fluid dynamics, helping doctors assess CSF circulation and detect abnormalities.

The patient is asked to remain still during the scan, and no radiation is involved. The procedure is non-invasive and provides detailed, dynamic images for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

What to expect & how to prepare

An MRI scanner uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves — not X-rays — to build detailed images of soft tissue. You lie still inside the scanner while it makes loud knocking noises; ear protection is provided.

• Metal and implants: tell the centre before your appointment about any pacemaker, defibrillator, cochlear implant, aneurysm clip, insulin pump, metal fragment or recent surgery — some implants make MRI unsafe.
• Belongings: you will remove watches, jewellery, cards, hairpins and anything metallic, and you may be asked to change into a gown.
• Fasting: routine MRI needs no fasting. Fasting is only needed for certain contrast or abdominal studies, and the centre will tell you when it applies.
• Duration: an MRI usually takes longer than an X-ray — ask the centre how long your scan is scheduled for.

MRI uses no ionising radiation. If a contrast injection is planned, tell the staff about kidney disease, previous contrast reactions, allergies, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Performed by a radiology team, normally on a doctor's request with a clinical question.
