MRI
Why would I need an MRI instead of an X-ray?
MRIs provide detailed images of soft tissues like muscles, tendons, and ligaments, which aren’t as visible on X-rays.
Is there any radiation exposure during an MRI?
No, MRIs use magnetic fields and radio waves, so there’s no radiation exposure like with X-rays.

Wear loose, metal-free clothing. Inform the technician of any implants, pacemakers, or tattoos before the procedure.

Is it safe to have multiple X-rays?
While X-rays involve radiation, the exposure is minimal. However, it’s always best to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.
What’s the difference between an X-ray and MRI?
