MRI Neck

MRI neck can provide answers to your symptoms

Why MRI neck scanning?

Do you have symptoms from the throat area, such as pain, swelling, a lump, a feeling of a lump, difficulty swallowing or other symptoms? An MRI scan is an effective and completely safe method to find the cause of your problems.

MRI examination of the neck examines the entire throat area, tonsils, salivary glands, tongue/base of the tongue, palate, floor of the mouth, vocal cords, larynx, thyroid gland and lymph nodes.

MRI neck provides very detailed images of organs and soft tissues, completely without radiation.

MRI of the neck is particularly useful in cases of suspected tumors, inflammation, infection, cysts, malformations or other pathological changes in the neck area.

For those seeking a neck MRI scan, an MRI scan is recommended.

What happens if you notice a change in your throat?

MRI can detect changes in the tonsils, salivary glands, tongue/base of the tongue, palate, floor of the mouth, vocal cords, larynx, thyroid gland, lymph nodes and other soft tissues.

MRI neck is a detailed examination used to visualize changes such as tumors, inflammation, infection, cysts, deformities and other pathological changes in the neck area with high precision.

Early detection and clear diagnosis are important in order to detect pathological changes and be able to initiate the correct treatment in time.

Advanced and secure examination

MRI neck is an advanced, painless and completely harmless examination that does not use X-ray radiation.

Using magnetic fields and radio waves, high-resolution images are created of the internal structures of the throat, such as the tonsils, salivary glands, tongue/base of the tongue, palate, floor of the mouth, vocal cords, larynx, thyroid gland and lymph nodes – at the millimeter level.

The examination takes about 20 minutes and does not require any special preparation.

Is neck MRI right for you?

MRI of the neck is recommended for symptoms from the neck area, such as pain, swelling, lump, lumpy feeling, difficulty swallowing, or other symptoms.

MRI gives the doctor a clear overview of organs and tissues in the area, at the millimeter level, and helps determine the cause of your symptoms.

Results from specialist within 7 working days

After the examination, your MRI images are reviewed by an X-ray specialist. You will then receive a personalized medical report from Prevcare's specialist physician – delivered within 7 working days.

You will also receive your MRI images via a link in your email, from Evidia Röntgen. With quick processing and clear answers, you will progress faster in your care.

Referral to a specialist if necessary

If the examination shows something that requires further action, our doctor - in consultation with you - will send a referral to the correct level of care, such as an ear, nose and throat doctor, general practitioner or other specialist.

A referral is included in the cost of the MRI examination and will help you smoothly proceed with processing and care.

What is the difference between an MRI and an MRI scan?

Many people search for an MRI of the neck, but the correct name is MRI or magnetic resonance imaging.

MRI does not use X-rays, but creates very detailed images using magnetic fields and radio waves. The method is completely harmless and is particularly suitable for examining organs and soft tissues in the abdomen, where other methods are not sufficient.

Information about MR Neck

What is an MRI scan?
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI or MR) is a medical imaging technique for diagnostic purposes using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) camera.
  • MRI involves taking images using magnetic fields and radio waves without any X-ray radiation, which makes it completely harmless.
  • The technology is used to detect diseases, map injuries and follow up treatments at the millimeter level in almost all human organs, such as tumors, inflammation, fractures, osteoarthritis, stroke and changes in blood vessels and bones.
This is how MR Hals works:
  • MRI examinations are performed at X-ray clinics. The images are first reviewed by a specialist in X-ray (radiologist). Prevcare's specialist then reviews the results, writes a summary and recommendations. If necessary, a referral is sent for further processing.
  • When you are examined with an MRI camera, you lie down on a bed that is moved into a so-called magnetic tunnel. There, you lie still while the images are taken. A nurse operates the camera from an adjacent room, and you can talk to the nurse at all times through a microphone and speaker.
  • After the MRI examination, you can leave the clinic immediately.
  • MRI of the neck takes about 20 minutes.
Who is not suitable for MRI Neck?
  • If you have electronic equipment implanted in your body, such as a pacemaker, insulin pump or cochlear implant, for example.
  • If you have had surgery on your head or heart and have metal clips implanted instead of stitches after surgery.
  • If you have metal splinters in your eye or other part of your body.
  • If you answered yes to any of the above, tell us so we and our doctor can look at what options are available.
  • Fixed dental fillings, dental implants, prostheses, hip-knee prostheses, and screws in the arms and legs are not an obstacle to an MRI examination.
How do I prepare for a neck MRI?
  • Please state in your health form if you have had previous X-ray examinations. This is so that our doctors can assess your condition as accurately as possible.
  • It is important that you state if you have diabetes, kidney problems or other illnesses in your health form. This is so that our doctors can assess your condition as accurately as possible.
  • It is necessary to tell your doctor if you are pregnant. MRI is generally not recommended during the first trimester of pregnancy. In such cases, the examination may be postponed until after the baby is born.
  • It is important that you tell us if you suffer from claustrophobia, or have a general feeling of discomfort in confined spaces. In this case, a discussion can be held with the responsible doctor regarding whether it is necessary to prescribe sedatives to make the examination as comfortable as possible. If you think that you are calmed by music, there is also, in some cases, the possibility of playing music during the examination for your comfort.
  • Also take the opportunity to leave all forms of jewelry and clothing that contain metal at home before you come for the examination.
  • Otherwise, it is good to discuss with the responsible specialist to see if there is anything above that cannot be fulfilled. At Prevcare, we are usually flexible regarding different solutions.
