MRI Center

Advanced Imaging. Clear Diagnosis. Fast Results.

At Ubonrak Thonburi Hospital, our MRI Center offers diagnostic imaging services for nearly every system in the body, including the brain, abdominal organs, bones, muscles, and joints. While MRI has some limitations in evaluating the lungs and intestines, it generally offers superior image clarity compared to CT scans (Computed Tomography).

We offer:

• Sharp, high-resolution images

• Fast appointments

• Results within 24 hours

• Direct government reimbursement (per regulations)

• Comfortable facilities designed with patient experience in mind

Benefits of MRI

1. Superior soft tissue contrast – MRI can distinguish between different types of tissues, improving diagnostic accuracy.

2. No exposure to X-ray radiation – MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves, making it a safer imaging option for many patients.

Preparation and Guidelines for MRI Scanning

1. No need to fast for most general MRI scans if the patient can cooperate during the procedure.

2. For abdominal MRI or MRCP (biliary tract imaging), fasting for 4–6 hours before the scan is required.

3. Avoid using cosmetic products containing metal, such as mascara or eyeshadow, which may interfere with the scan.

4. Patients must remain completely still during the scan to ensure clear, accurate images.

5. The machine may make intermittent loud noises; ear protection will be provided for your comfort.

6. Scan duration depends on the area being examined, typically 30–40 minutes.
