Are there any possible side effects of mri scan?

MRI side effects: There are side effects to everything. MRIs expose us to magnetic fields and we do not know a great deal about their impact. Here's a link https://www.fda.gov/Radiation-EmittingProducts/RadiationEmittingProductsandProcedures/MedicalImaging/MRI/ucm482765.htm The positive impact and use of MRIs far outweighs any potential risk. Peace and good health.

MRI Scan: There are very little side effects of an MRI scan- there is no radiation nor any contrast containing iodine. Some MRI scans use gadolinium as a contrast to identify certain conditions-- a reaction is possible but very low. If someone has a very very low kidney function, they cannot have gadolinium, however can have a standard noncontrast MRI. Ask your doctor for specifics to you or your scan type.
