What is MRI of Dementia Protocol?
MRI of the dementia protocol is used to evaluate the brain in patients with dementia symptoms. It identifies structural changes associated with various types of dementia, such as Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, and frontotemporal dementia.
The protocol includes standard MRI sequences (T1, T2, FLAIR) to detect brain atrophy, volumetric imaging to measure brain volume loss, and Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) to assess white matter integrity. Contrast-enhanced MRI may also be used to rule out other causes like tumors.
The procedure is non-invasive, with minimal risks like mild discomfort or allergic reactions to contrast dye, aiding in 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.
