MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical test that uses a magnetic field and pulses of radio waves to create images of the body’s internal organs and structures. The resulting images reveal details that are invisible or hard to see when using other imaging methods, such as X-rays, ultrasound exams or CT scans. Physicians often rely on these MRI images to properly diagnose a variety of injuries, conditions and diseases.

MRI Frequently Asked Questions
How long does an MRI scan take?
MRI scans typically take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the type of exam and whether contrast is used.
What conditions can an MRI diagnose?
Our MRI can be used to evaluate conditions related to the brain, spine, joints, abdomen, and soft tissues — just like a traditional MRI.
How to get through an MRI if you’re claustrophobic?
Our open MRI in Knightdale helps eliminate the need for sedation in many cases. The open structure, natural light, and quiet operation provide a more relaxing experience from start to finish.
What is an MRI Safety Implant Assessment Charge?
If you have an implanted device—such as a spinal cord stimulator, aneurysm repair, port, or surgical hardware—our team must complete a detailed MRI implant safety review before your exam. The implant safety review requires trained staff, specialized resources, and additional verification steps to ensure your MRI can be performed safely and according to national standards. A small charge helps cover the cost of this required process.
