A member asked:
Will a bad hangover affect an mri of the brain?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No, it will not: But if the hangover is bad enough it certainly could affect THE SCANNER itself. If you ask for a bucket made ENTIRELY out of PLASTIC to be tableside for you then, mishaps as what tend to happen in moving cars after a night of joyful "pistiando" can be avoided. Of course, you'll want to also alert the technician that she may need to yank you out in 20 seconds or less if you give her a sign!

What kind of MRI?: A conventional MRI for structural lesions is not likely to be affected. A functional MRI would be. It is likely that you are having a conventional MRI. Even then you should tell your doctor about your hangover and alcohol use so that they may adjust any medication they may need to use.
