Magnetic Resonance Imaging, also known as MRI, is a non-invasive diagnostic method that uses a powerful magnetic field and harmless radio waves to obtain high-resolution images of the internal structures of the human body. It provides detailed insights into the body without any invasive procedures. MRI scans are incredibly helpful in diagnosing and monitoring various conditions, including brain disorders, spinal issues, muscle/joint injuries, and more. Early stages of certain conditions may lack noticeable symptoms. MRI scans provide a comprehensive understanding of your body, capturing even the slightest changes in tissues. This aids in the early detection of potential illnesses, enabling prompt treatment. Additionally, MRI scans are safe and advantageous for pregnant women and children as they do not involve harmful radiation.

FAQ

It is recommended that adults aged 18 or above should undergo a regular health screening every year to detect potential health disorders or hidden illnesses. High risk groups and elderly should have their physical examinations every six months as it can be difficult to diagnose diseases in the early stages. Individuals who had family history with serious illnesses like cancer, heart disease or genetic diseases, should undergo appropriate health checks according to their needs.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) employs a strong magnetic field that forces protons in the body to release electromagnetic waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body. MRI is non-radioactive and therefore is suitable for a check-up, diagnosis, and follow-up of most body parts (including the musculoskeletal, and the nervous system). MRI is more commonly used for examination of the brain, spinal nerves, ligaments, joints, muscles, heart, blood vessels, breasts, abdomen, etc. It is also used to monitor changes in fatty liver and the progress of cartilage repair.

MRI scan is an imaging scan that utilises a magnetic field and resonance frequency. With the generated strong magnetic field, the hydrogen particles inside the human body are realigned to exhibit distinctive magnetic resonance. Different from x-ray and CT scan, MRI is not radioactive.

If necessary, a contrast agent will be injected to allow blood vessels and abnormal tissue to be easily visualised. There is no weird sensation upon injection. The possibility of having allergic and biological reactions is low.

For your safety, please inform our medical staff before the MRI scan if you:

have a cochlear implant
have an IVC filter
have a Swan-Ganz catheter
have an insulin injector
have an internal electrode or stimulator
have a nerve stimulator
have an implantable drug delivery devices, stent, vessel clip
have used astrictive steel wire, or steel plate, and steel nail to immobilise or install artificial joints
have metallic dentures or dental prosthetics (artefacts may form which affect the evaluation)
are at early pregnancy (3 months or below)
have claustrophobia

Stroke Risk Screening: Automatic Retinal Image Analysis

Stroke is caused by the blockage or burst of blood vessels in the brain, which hinders the brain tissue from receiving sufficient nutrients and oxygen. The affected nerve cells become necrotic, resulting in various neurological symptoms. The stroke risk examination uses fully automatic retinal image analysis technology to use fundus images to check whether the microfilament blood vessels in the fundus are narrowed, bleeding, blocked, or particularly curled, with abnormal bifurcation angles, etc., so as to evaluate the overall cerebrovascular status. As it reflects the chance of stroke, early knowledge of blood vessel conditions can help provide preventive treatment.
