MRI

Persons not suitable for MRI.

Because of the strong magnetic field strength used, MRI is not suitable for anyone with:

  • a Cardiac Pacemaker
  • Neural stimulators
  • Cochlear implants
  • certain types of body implants
  • certain types of body piercing
  • certain types of Aneurysm clips
  • first trimester of pregnancy

If you are unsure whether the above applies to you, please contact us directly or speak to your doctor. Prior to the scan you can eat and drink as normal and continue to take any medications-this will not affect the imaging.
