What is a Brain MRI?
A brain MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a
non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses
strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create
detailed images of the brain's structure and
function.

What is a Brain MRI with contrast?
Brain MRI with contrast involves using a contrast
agent to enhance imaging and highlight specific
structures for a more detailed examination.
Contrast material enhances the visibility of the
following

• Certain organs blood supply.

• Blood vessels

Tumors

• Inflammation.

What is the difference between a head MRI and a
brain MRI?
A head MRI and a brain MRI are often used
interchangeably, but there's a subtle
distinction. A head MRI typically includes the
entire head, encompassing the brain, skull, and
other structures. A brain MRI specifically
focuses on imaging the brain alone, providing
detailed views of its anatomy and potential
abnormalities. In summary, a head MRI is broader,
while a brain MRI is more specific to the brain
itself.

A Brain MRI can show various aspects of the Brain

• Brain Structure
• Grey and White Matter It can distinguish between
  grey matter (containing nerve cell bodies) and
  white matter (containing nerve fibers).
• Cerebral Cortex The outer layer of the brain
  responsible for higher cognitive functions.
• Subcortical Structures Areas beneath the
  cerebral cortex, such as the thalamus and basal
  ganglia.
• Brain Anatomy
• Ventricles Fluid-filled spaces within the brain.
• Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) The fluid that
  surrounds the brain and spinal cord.
• Blood Vessels
• Vascular Structures The MRI can visualize blood
  vessels within the brain and detect abnormalities
  such as aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations.
• Tumors and Lesions
• Tumors Both benign and malignant tumors can be
  detected.
• Lesions Areas of abnormal tissue, which can be
  caused by various conditions such as multiple
  sclerosis or infections.
• Inflammation and Infection
• Inflammatory Conditions Conditions like
  encephalitis or meningitis can be visualized.
• Infections Abscesses or other infectious
  processes may be identified.
• Stroke and Ischemia
• Infarctions Areas of reduced blood supply and
  tissue damage due to stroke or ischemia.
• Functional Imaging (in some cases)
