A member asked:
Is it good to drink 2 to 3 glasses of water or more 5 hours before mri/mra with contrast?does it increases or decreases size of brain aneurysm if foud
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not needed: Mri contrast is not iodine containing therefore it doesn't cause kidney problems, therefore no need to hydrate in that fashion. Doubt oral fluid has any impact on brain aneurysm physiology.
