MRIs of this type are used to closely examine various bones, joints, and muscles in the body. This also includes soft tissues such as tendons, cartilage or ligaments. The aim is to obtain clear images of these bone structures and soft parts to diagnose or rule out pathologies of various kinds.
However, these tests are also used to indicate the most appropriate treatment for each patient and, in cases of surgical intervention, to monitor the recovery of the treated area.
An MRI that is carried out to diagnose pathologies in the knee is called MRI for knee pain, which is performed to get images of the knee bone and the soft tissues adjacent to it in order to detect pathology and, if any, indicate the most appropriate treatment and its subsequent follow-up.
This magnetic resonance is indicated above all in cases of traumatic injuries to the knee, but also when there is the pain of unknown origin, infections, bruises, strains or swelling. It can be indicated to find various problems such as:
MRI of the shoulder allows images of the bony structures and soft tissues of the shoulder to be obtained in various planes of space in search of pathologies. It is also used to fine-tune the treatment in case there is pathology in the shoulder or to follow up on surgery or other treatment.
In this case, the indications are aimed at patients with traumatic injuries, non-specific pain, strains, bruises and swelling. It is about locating through images tears, tendon injuries, ligament or muscle injuries and even fractures that have not been previously visible on an x-ray. In addition, this test is also used to diagnose deterioration in the shoulder joints or degenerative injuries such as arthritis.
This test is also used to detect neoplasms, congenital diseases, neurological abnormalities, rotatory abnormalities, infections, etc.
This diagnostic test is carried out to obtain clear images of the bones and soft parts that make up the forearm with the aim of diagnosing pathologies in that area. In addition, magnetic resonance is used to help the specialist in the indication of treatment and even in its subsequent follow-up.
This MRI is indicated in cases of suspicion or disease in the forearm. It is indicated above all in cases of non-specific pain, traumatic injuries, bruises, infections and swellings.
Through resonance, you can evaluate, study and detect various pathologies such as:
As in previous magnetic resonances, this type of resonance makes it possible to obtain images in various planes of space of the bony structures and soft parts of the hip. The objective is to diagnose pathologies in this area of the body, although this test can also be used to improve treatment or for follow-up.
This MRI is performed when someone has had a traumatic injury or feels pain without knowing its origin, or has bruises, infections, or swelling.
The most common indications in these cases are:
This test is used to diagnose if there is pathology in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). To do this, images of the bone structure and soft parts of the area are obtained in different planes of space. In this way, it is also possible to obtain a more precise diagnosis for future treatment or for subsequent monitoring of the pathology.
This magnetic resonance is performed in case of traumatic injuries, bruises, infections, non-specific pain or swelling. Therefore, the indications are usually, among others:
This magnetic resonance is carried out to obtain clear images of the joint and the soft parts that form the arm with the aim of diagnosing or ruling out pathologies in this area of the body. The test can also be used to help the doctor in choosing the patient’s treatment or for subsequent follow-up.
This MRI of the arm is performed in the case of traumatic injuries caused by a blow, swelling, bruising, infection, or chronic pain. In addition, the images can detect injuries to tendons, muscles, or ligaments as well as previously undetected fractures and degenerative disorders.
Congenital and neurological diseases as well as bone and muscle injuries, soft tissue infections, and bone or soft tissue tumors can also be diagnosed and evaluated. Among its indications is also the evaluation prior to surgical intervention and the evaluation of response to chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatments.
This diagnostic test makes it possible to obtain clear images of the bones and soft parts of the hand to find out if there is pathology in the said area or not. In addition, magnetic resonance imaging of the hand is also used to facilitate the indication of the most appropriate treatment in each case and its subsequent follow-up.
This magnetic resonance is indicated when there is pain whose origin is unknown, traumatic injuries, bruises, swelling, or infections. However, the most common indications are:
Elbow MRI is performed to obtain clear images of the elbow joint bone and adjacent soft tissue in various planes of space. Thus, the objective is to determine if there is pathology in said area to carry out an adequate treatment as well as for its subsequent follow-up.
This diagnostic test is carried out in cases of non-specific pain, traumatic injury, infection, hematoma, distension or swelling. Among the most common indications are:
This test consists of carrying out a study or analysis of the bone structure and adjacent soft parts of the wrist with the aim of diagnosing or ruling out pathologies in said area. Thus, in the case of pathology, the specialist is helped to administer the most suitable treatment for each patient and is also used for follow-up.
This MRI is performed when a person has pain of unknown origin, traumatic injuries, bruises, strains, infections, or swelling. However, it is also used in cases of tendon, ligament or muscle injuries, degenerative disorders, undiagnosed fractures, etc. Among its most common indications are:
Magnetic resonance imaging of the foot or ankle allows clear images of the foot or ankle joint and its soft parts to be obtained to diagnose whether or not there is a pathology. If there is a disease, this same test is used to carry out the appropriate treatment and follow-up.
This diagnostic test is performed in the case of patients with bruises, infections, swellings, strains, traumatic injuries, or nonspecific pain. It is also performed to study tears in ligaments, muscles and tendons as well as in the diagnosis of degenerative disorders, arthritis or previously unseen fractures.
Therefore, the most common indications in this type of MRI are:
This diagnostic test is used to obtain images of the soft tissue and bone of the leg or thigh. Thus, it is possible to diagnose the existence of pathologies in one of these anatomical parts for subsequent treatment and follow-up.
This MRI is indicated in patients with an unknown pain, bruising, strain, infection, traumatic injury, and swelling. Also, in the case of ligament, muscle and tendon tears as well as in the case of previously undiagnosed fractures and degenerative disorders.
Some of its indications are:
