What this test is

An MRI Brain (Plain) scan uses a powerful 3-Tesla magnet to produce high-resolution images of the brain — without any radiation and without contrast injection. Doctors use it to investigate persistent headaches, dizziness, vision changes, or rule out serious conditions early. The scan itself is painless; you simply lie still for about 30 minutes.

When you need this test

  • Frequent or severe headaches
  • Sudden vision or speech changes
  • Persistent dizziness or imbalance
  • Memory loss or confusion
  • Doctor's order to rule out stroke or tumour

How to prepare

  • No fasting required — eat normally.
  • Wear comfortable clothes without metal zippers or buttons.
  • Remove all jewellery, watches, and hairpins before the scan.
  • Tell us in advance if you have a pacemaker, cochlear implant, or any metal implants.

Why 3T MRI matters

Premium imaging, no extra cost.

Most city centres still run 1.5T scanners. Through DiagnoHouse, every MRI defaults to a 3-Tesla machine — at the same negotiated price.

  • Sharper images

    3 Tesla = double the magnetic field strength of standard 1.5T scanners. More detail per millimetre.

  • Faster scans

    Higher signal lets us collect data in less time — most 3T scans complete in 20–30 minutes.

  • Earlier diagnosis

    Subtle abnormalities show up earlier on 3T — especially in brain, spine, and joint imaging.

FAQs

  • Is MRI painful?
    No. You only need to lie still inside the machine for about 30 minutes. The scan is completely painless.
  • Do I need fasting?
    No fasting is required for a plain MRI brain. You can eat and take your regular medications.
  • How quickly will I get the report?
    Reports are usually delivered within 24 hours, often the same day for morning scans.
  • What if I am claustrophobic?
    Tell us before booking — our team can guide you through it and, if needed, your doctor may prescribe a mild sedative.
  • Is the 3T MRI safer than other machines?
    3T MRI is more powerful and gives sharper images in less time, which means a shorter scan and earlier diagnosis. It uses no radiation.
