Does it hurt to get a cervical spine mri without dye done?

MRI pain?: Generally mri's are without pain except for a possible IV for administering contrast (usually needed for best study). However, lying completely still for several minutes may exacerbate your neck pain. Techs will do their best to make you comfortable.
