Anesthesia for MRI

Anesthesia for MRI involves administering medications to help a patient stay still and calm during the imaging procedure, especially if they are anxious, uncomfortable, or unable to tolerate the noise and confinement. It ensures the patient remains motionless, which is essential for clear, accurate images. The anesthesia used is carefully monitored by medical professionals and typically involves sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's needs. The goal is to keep the patient safe, comfortable, and immobilized throughout the MRI, facilitating high-quality imaging results while minimizing discomfort or stress.
