What are some common uses for MRI
procedures?
MRI imaging of the body is performed to evaluate:
 Organs of the chest and abdomen—including the heart, liver, biliary
tract, kidneys, spleen, bowel, pancreas, and adrenal glands.
 Pelvic organs including the bladder and the reproductive organs such
as the uterus and ovaries in females and the prostate gland in males.
 Blood vessels (including MRI Angiography).
 Lymph nodes.
Physicians use an MRI examination to help diagnose or monitor treatment
for conditions such as:
 Tumors of the chest, abdomen or pelvis.
 Diseases of the liver, such as cirrhosis, and abnormalities of the bile
ducts and pancreas
 Inflammatory bowel disease such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative
colitis
 Heart problems, such as congenital heart disease.
 Malformations of the blood vessels and inflammation of the vessels
(vasculitis).
