Brain MRI is the main imaging test for a wide range of neurological and vascular conditions — from headaches and dizziness to strokes, tumours and epilepsy. AV Scan processes all brain MRI studies through Fujifilm's Synapse 3D platform for 3D post-processing.
Standard non-contrast MRI covering all brain parenchyma, white matter, cerebellum, brainstem and cranial nerves. Used for most neurological screening and follow-up.
Gadolinium contrast is used to highlight blood-brain barrier breakdown — essential for tumours, infections, metastases and inflammatory conditions.
Non-invasive imaging of the cerebral arteries and veins — for aneurysm detection, AVM evaluation and carotid/vertebral artery assessment.
High-resolution thin-slice sequences specifically designed for epilepsy — includes hippocampal volumetry and cortical mapping.
Assesses cerebral blood flow — important in acute stroke workup and tumour characterisation. Processed via Synapse 3D.
Brain MRI at AV Scan Diagnostics is done on a Fujifilm ECHELON Smart MRI with a wide bore. The bore is the opening you lie in. Its width gives room around your shoulders and face, which can help if you are broad-built or feel closed in. It is a closed, wide-bore scanner: a tunnel with an opening at each end.
If closed spaces make you anxious, or you could not finish an MRI before, tell us when you book so our team can plan your scan. The MRI preparation guide explains what happens on the day.
