MRI During Pregnancy?
MRI is considered a safe test, and there is no
ionizing radiation used. However, conclusive evidence showing how safe
MRI is for pregnant women and the fetus is not yet available. MRI is
generally not preformed during the first twelve weeks of pregnancy
(first trimester). Generally, we do not perform MRI on pregnant wowen,
unless there is a strong medical indication. Prior to the test you may
want to consult with your obstetrician & the radiologist.
