Image for MR Enterography

MR Enterography

MR Enterography is a specialized MRI scan used to visualize the small intestine and diagnose conditions like Crohn's disease or other gastrointestinal disorders. During the procedure, the patient drinks a contrast fluid that helps highlight the intestines, and then MRI images are taken. This non-invasive technique uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images, allowing doctors to assess inflammation, blockages, or tumors without exposing the patient to radiation. It is particularly useful for evaluating abdominal pain and gastrointestinal issues, providing valuable information for treatment planning.
