I've had an MRI in the past, so I'm familiar with half, I suppose.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 MRA is a piece of cake. I will caution you it is very, VERY loud. It lasts maybe 10 minutes. Keep us updated. You will be in my thoughts! Kami [ ] Mra and MRI Hi everyone. If anyone has had both an MRI and mra, could you share what it's like? I've had an MRI in the past, so I'm familiar with half, I suppose. I've been having headaches and on Fri started having problems with speech and word finding, so the doc is going to scan my noggin on Mon. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 They place your head in a cradle but if I remember correctly, nothing goes directly over your face. I am not bothered by things like that so I honestly didn't take notice! I had one this past summer after passing out and was totally amazed at how quickly it was over and how LOUD it was! You may want to call just in case.... Re: [ ] Mra and MRI Thanks Kami! They won't put that horrid mask over my face will they? They did my c spine last time and I think that wa required.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 I was surprised by how loud an MRI was! I wasn't expecting that. I hope I never have to have an MRA if it's even louder.
