MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves to provide detailed images of soft tissues, joints, the brain and spine. CT uses X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images, often for the chest, abdomen, bones and blood vessels. Ultrasound uses sound waves and is commonly used for organs, blood flow and pelvic assessment. X-rays are typically used to assess bones and some chest conditions. The most appropriate scan depends on your symptoms and clinical question.
Preparation varies by examination. Some CT or MRI scans may require fasting, contrast dye, blood tests or specific safety checks, while other scans need little preparation. You will receive clear instructions about clothing, medicines, arrival time and any items to avoid bringing, such as metal objects for MRI.
