Brain MRI scan sounds sequence using a GE 3T 8 channel High Resolution Brain Coil. This Brain MRI scan sequence is optimized to highlight fluid present in the cranial region and provides noise cancellation for resonant signal that may be caused by the presence of a brain shunt. Brain MRI scan sequence performed on a GE 3T MRI scanner. This specialized Brain MRI scan sequence provides clear images of the cerebrospinal fluid present within the cranial region and is an optimal choice for patients with brain shunts. This MRI scan was performed using a GE 3T 8 Channel High Resolution Brain Coil.

I have a bit of superficial knowledge of MRI (once in the 80's I wrote a thesis on them). Whenever I undero a MRI, I try to correlate the noise to what I know the machine is doing and what is being seen... sounds silly, but it reallly helps me relax during an hour-long MRI.

I’ve been getting ct scans and mris every year for my shunt but now they’re switching me over to ct scans cuz I recently had a shunt failure and they had to replace it with a programmable one and so far it’s been functioning properly spent 5 days in the hospital for it

Read this if you're nervous about getting an mri. I will be commenting on as many mri videos as I can in these next few weeks, because it seems so many people struggle with these and I want to help. I was so scared to get my mri. I got one on my brain and neck. I'm a 22 year old, tiny woman who is terrified of loud noises and doesn't care for small spaces. Everyone online, especially on youtube, got me really worked up about it, and I cried and refused to get in the machine. So my insurance didn't get to pay for it. I had to come back again with a valium and pay out of pocket. I thought the mri would be so loud, that I'd be jumping and panicking, and have a panic attack. My aunt had to come in there with me and hold my foot. And they had to talk to me before I got in there. The mri was nowhere near as loud as everyone said it was going to be. And for me, it was pretty spacious. They didn't even put me all the way in there, just a fourth to half way in the tunnel. It wasn't bad at all. The noise and music wasn't that loud. The sounds were muffled, as the ear protection worked well. It wasn't even as loud as school pep rally's nor was it as loud as the music I listen to. (Of course that might be because I had headphones and stuff on.) It didn't even sound as loud as this video when I was in there. Everyone says it's super loud and scary, but it wasn't. It was like being in a giant microwave. That's what it sounded like to me. It was bright and I could see some out of the tunnel. It was more relaxing than scary, and it went by so fast. Felt like it had only been ten minutes, but I was in there for about 40 something minutes. I could do it again and wouldn't mind. I am the biggest wuss you will ever meet, and this is different for everyone, but it really isn't anything to be afraid of. It was just like getting an x-ray. It was no big deal. I got upset about it for no reason. It was safe and fine. And yes, the old ones are a little worse than the new ones, but I still don't think it's as bad as everyone says they are. I'm just a stranger online telling you it isn't bad, when all the other strangers are telling you it is, and that's hard. But I can't even go to movie theaters because I think they're "too loud", but this didn't even sound that loud, because of the ear protection. I'd rather get an mri again then go to a pep rally, lumberjack show, concert, movie theater, or anything of that sort. I'm sorry when I write, it's so long. I will try to make some shorter comments elsewhere. lol. But yeah, It's okay. Don't be scared.

It was easy because of the Valium.

@ambsxx 3 ай бұрын

@@icysurfer1 I had an extremely small dose, like half of a dose. Maybe 5 mg?Medicine like that doesn’t affect me much either. I just thought it would be much worse than what it was. I was still nervous before I got in there even when on the Valium. I wasn’t given much bc they thought I was on an anti depressant, but I wasn’t. The tiny amount of Valium did help some to calm me down, but it really didn’t do too much, and the experience was still not super loud like I thought it would be. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@nikolvitanza4746 2 жыл бұрын

I don't think it's likely, they probably wouldn't get a good scan though depending on what they're looking for. Even talking or laughing messes stuff up in there, but as for the burns again, not likely. But don't quote me, I just know some basic stuff.

@coastersaga Жыл бұрын

@@nikolvitanza4746 One time, when I was in a 1.5T MRI nearing when I'd be pulled out for a contrast injection, all the other frequencies cut off. At first I heard the coldhead pumping, and then the gradient coils came knocking out of nowhere. I almost jumped out of my skin, but the technologist said that twitches like that were common (I assumed that she meant about the startle reflex.)

I have safe, cotton clothes I'd worn during many MRI's. No metal. Something must have gone wrong for someone else. Had to change to a gown last week. I use a walker and put on two gowns. Vertigo from MS since 1978. :/ Annoying: used to get right into the machine, no delay, (with diazepam - claustrophobic.)

When we are performing test scans, we use "phantoms," which is basically a plastic ball filled with nickel chloride. This provide a consistent return signal when performing baseline scans. In reality, we could also use a water bottle or something similar. Thank you for the question!

The Sagittal T1 FLAIR scan sequence is a T1 weighted fluid attenuated inversion recovery sequence. It is just a fancy way of saying the CSF fluid show up darker in the images, as compared to the tissue around it.

Time 18:40 for example- this fast hammery knocking is part of scanning or it’s just something to rearrange the magnets and not scan something at that moment ? The hammery Knocking that I had in TH mri had me laughing. It wasn’t accompanied by other sounds. Just few empty knocks coming out of silence
