What is MRI of Lumbar Spine With Screening Whole Spine?
An MRI of the lumbar spine with screening of the whole spine is a comprehensive imaging procedure that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the entire spine, including the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions. It is typically performed to assess conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, tumors, infections, or abnormalities affecting the spinal cord and surrounding tissues.
No special preparation is usually required, but fasting may be needed if a contrast agent is used. During the scan, you will lie still for about 45-60 minutes while the images are taken.
The procedure is painless, and you can resume normal activities afterward. A radiologist will interpret the results.
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.
