MRI Scan - Renal Angio with Contrast Test

MRI Scan Renal Angio with Contrast test is done in order to detect abnormalities in Kidneys and its malfunctioning. This test is especially preferred when patients suffer from allergies or even if patients suffer when exposed to radiations or pregnant women or children. In this test, Renal Angio is done along with contrast; it means that contrast materials will be injected into the body of the patient in order to complete the process of scanning. These contrast materials will help the radiologists to see the details of the scan deeply and detect the problem, which otherwise is not viewable. MRI contrast agents do rarely have side effects of skin disorder named nephrogenic systemic febrosis, but these contrast materials are not required for all the people who undergo MRI Scan Renal Angio test.

MRI Scan Renal Angio with contrast does not require following any special diet in their food, unless and until it is recommended by the doctor. In this test, the contrast material that is gadolinium is injected into the vein of the person attending the scan test, so it is essential to inform the doctor if they are allergic to any medications or conditions. Patients who are undergoing this test need to dress up in the hospital gown before the scan. It is essential to remove all the metal objects worn because they interfere with the results. A pregnant woman and those who have undergone any surgeries need to inform radiologists prior to the scanning test.

MRI Scan Renal Angio with Contrast test is done in order to detect any disorders in the functioning of kidneys. This test concludes the following results: This scan test also detects some of the mild cases of DSA detectable AD. MRI scan test will detect accurate characteristics of renal lesions. This test also evaluates complicated cysts, renal diseases, and renal artery stenosis. This test determines renal artery dissection, Fibromuscular dysplasia, and renal vascular malformation.

MRI Scan Renal Angio with contrast test is done by passing X-Ray radiations, into the body of a person. First patients are asked to wear the hospital gown and lie on the X-ray table available there. Then patients are fixed with the help of straps and bolster to stay still during the test. Coils that will send and receive radio waves are either wrapped or placed adjacent to the body of the person being tested.

Next contrast material is injected into the vein of the person using IV line. Then they are shifted on to the magnet of MRI unit and images are taken. Once the radiologist checks whether they are blur or require other images and informs. After capturing images then it takes some time to process them.
