Get your MRI PNS With Contrast at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, an NABL & NABH-accredited diagnostic centre. In this advanced MRI examination, detailed images of the paranasal sinuses, nasal cavity, surrounding soft tissues, and adjacent structures are acquired. Contrast enhancement can provide additional information for selected inflammatory, infectious, and soft-tissue abnormalities. The examination is performed using advanced MRI technology under the supervision of experienced radiologists.
About MRI PNS WITH CONTRAST
MRI PNS With Contrast is a specialized imaging examination used for detailed evaluation of the paranasal sinuses and surrounding structures when additional soft-tissue characterization is required. It combines high-resolution MRI with intravenous contrast enhancement. MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images without ionizing radiation.
What is MRI PNS WITH CONTRAST?
This examination produces detailed cross-sectional images of the paranasal sinuses, nasal cavity, surrounding soft tissues, and adjacent anatomical structures. Contrast material is administered when clinically indicated to improve visualization and characterization of certain abnormalities.
Common Reasons for MRI PNS WITH CONTRAST
Evaluation of persistent or complicated sinus symptoms
Assessment of suspected sinus or nasal soft-tissue lesions
Evaluation of inflammation or infection
Assessment of abnormalities extending beyond the sinuses
Characterization of a suspected mass or lesion
Further evaluation of findings from previous imaging
Assessment of postoperative or treatment-related changes
Evaluation of selected abnormalities involving adjacent structures
Conditions Evaluated
Sinus and Nasal Abnormalities
MRI can help evaluate structural and soft-tissue abnormalities involving the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavity.
Sinus Inflammation and Infection
Contrast-enhanced MRI can provide additional information when complicated inflammatory or infectious changes are suspected.
Soft-Tissue Lesions
The examination can help characterize selected masses, lesions, or abnormal soft-tissue changes involving the sinonasal region.
Extension to Adjacent Structures
MRI provides detailed soft-tissue visualization and can help assess selected abnormalities involving structures surrounding the sinuses.
Postoperative Changes
MRI with contrast can provide additional information during selected postoperative or treatment-related evaluations.
Who Should Consider This Scan?
Your doctor may recommend an MRI PNS With Contrast if you have:
Persistent or unexplained sinonasal symptoms
Suspected sinonasal mass or lesion
Suspected complicated infection or inflammation
Abnormal findings on previous imaging
A suspected soft-tissue abnormality
A need for detailed postoperative assessment
A need for further characterization before treatment
Benefits of MRI PNS WITH CONTRAST

जांच से पहले 4–6 घंटे तक उपवास रखें, जब तक डॉक्टर या सेंटर द्वारा अलग निर्देश न दिया गया हो।
आवश्यक दवाएं आमतौर पर थोड़े पानी के साथ ली जा सकती हैं, जब तक डॉक्टर द्वारा मना न किया गया हो।
यदि आपके शरीर में पेसमेकर, इम्प्लांटेड डिवाइस, एन्यूरिज्म क्लिप, कॉक्लियर इम्प्लांट, धातु का टुकड़ा या अन्य धातु संबंधी इम्प्लांट है, तो टीम को पहले से बताएं।
यदि पहले MRI कॉन्ट्रास्ट से कोई एलर्जी या रिएक्शन हुआ है, तो इसकी जानकारी दें।
यदि आपको किडनी की बीमारी या किडनी की कार्यक्षमता कम है, तो कॉन्ट्रास्ट देने से पहले इसकी जानकारी दें।
यदि आप गर्भवती हैं या गर्भावस्था की संभावना है, तो रेडियोलॉजी टीम को बताएं।
जांच से पहले गहने, घड़ी, हेयर एक्सेसरी और अन्य धातु की वस्तुएं हटा दें।
संभव हो तो बिना धातु वाले आरामदायक कपड़े पहनें।
पिछली MRI, CT, X-ray, एंडोस्कोपी या अन्य संबंधित ENT/साइनस इमेजिंग रिपोर्ट साथ लाएं।
हाल की साइनस या नाक की सर्जरी, बायोप्सी, प्रक्रिया, चोट या चल रहे उपचार के बारे में टीम को बताएं।
अपनी स्थिति के अनुसार रेडियोलॉजी टीम द्वारा दिए गए अतिरिक्त निर्देशों का पालन करें।
The radiology team reviews your clinical history, symptoms, previous imaging, and relevant ENT information.
MRI safety screening is performed to check for implants, metallic objects, and other conditions that may affect the examination.
