Brain MRI scan under general anaesthetic - tomorrow

[Guest guest]

We have this tomorrow (our daughter cannot speak more than a few syllables and

has very serious problem here):

General Anaesthetic choice between:

Gas: nitrous oxide + sebofluoride (organic flouride)

IV: propofol

Dye: unlikely to use, but could use organic cyclic gadallium

Agenda: No food or drink most of night. Go to hospital ward bed

8.30 am. Questions. Anaesthetic where Sophie will sleep completely. 30-60

minute scan. Wake up. Go home

Comments please regarding safety.

(NB: we are looking to measure: brain inflammation levels, any tumour, any

lesions, de-myelination of nerves, possibly toxic metals)
