What is MRI of Dorso Lumbar Spine?
MRI of the dorso-lumbar spine is a diagnostic procedure that evaluates both the thoracic (middle back) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine. It is used to diagnose conditions affecting the vertebrae, discs, spinal cord, and nerve roots, such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, fractures, tumors, infections, and sciatica.
During the procedure, the patient lies still in an MRI scanner, which uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images. Contrast dye may be used to enhance visibility.
Preparation is minimal, though fasting may be required if contrast is used. The procedure is safe, with minimal risks, and provides valuable diagnostic information for 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.
