イメージHealth checkup facilities offering Brain MRI (Brain Dock) in Oita
An MRI scan of the brain to check for conditions such as cerebral infarction, brain tumors, and aneurysms
What Brain MRI (Brain Dock) can reveal & when to get it
This examination uses MRI and MRA (magnetic resonance angiography) to assess the condition of the brain and its blood vessels. With no radiation exposure, it is the cornerstone examination of a brain dock, capable of detecting unruptured cerebral aneurysms, asymptomatic cerebral infarctions, brain tumors, and more.
Main conditions it can detect and evaluate
- Unruptured cerebral aneurysm
- Asymptomatic cerebral infarction
- Brain tumor
- Cerebrovascular stenosis
- White matter lesions
When to consider this test
This is an optional (voluntary) examination. It is recommended for individuals with stroke risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or smoking, those with a family history of stroke or cerebrovascular disease, and middle-aged or older adults concerned about their brain health.
Screening interval: Optional. Frequency varies depending on individual risk — typically once every few years or as advised by a physician.
