Dynamic Abdomen MRI in Dubai at DRHC Dubai

At the Dr. Rami Hamed Center (DRHC) in Dubai, we provide Dynamic Abdomen MRI as a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool for detailed imaging of abdominal organs, especially the liver, pancreas, and adrenal glands. This non-invasive scan uses magnetic fields and radio waves, along with contrast agents, to capture real-time, multi-phase images, giving specialists a dynamic view of how organs function, enhance, and respond over time.

This technique is particularly valuable for detecting early disease, assessing tumors, and planning treatment—all without exposure to ionizing radiation.

What Is a Dynamic Abdomen MRI?

A Dynamic Abdomen MRI involves injecting a gadolinium-based contrast agent and acquiring images of the abdomen in timed phases, such as arterial, portal venous, and delayed phases. These sequences help radiologists evaluate vascular patterns, tissue characteristics, and functional details of abdominal organs, which are critical in distinguishing benign from malignant conditions.

Focused Imaging of Liver, Pancreas & Adrenal Glands

🩺 Liver Imaging

  • Detection and characterization of liver lesions (cysts, hemangiomas, HCC, metastases)
  • Evaluation of liver cirrhosis or fibrosis
  • Monitoring post-treatment changes (e.g., ablation, chemotherapy)

🩺 Pancreas Imaging

  • Identification of pancreatic tumors or cysts
  • Assessment of chronic pancreatitis or inflammation
  • Pre-surgical planning and staging of pancreatic cancer

🩺 Adrenal Gland Imaging

  • Detection of adrenal masses (adenomas, pheochromocytomas)
  • Differentiation of benign vs. malignant tumors
  • Evaluation of hormone-secreting lesions

Benefits of Dynamic Abdomen MRI at DRHC

  • High-resolution, motion-compensated imaging
  • Radiation-free – safe for repeated assessments
  • Excellent soft tissue contrast, even in complex areas
  • Functional and anatomical evaluation in one exam
  • Performed by experienced  radiologists and MRI technologists
  • Ideal for oncology, hepatology, and endocrinology evaluations

We use advanced MRI sequences tailored for abdominal imaging to deliver the most accurate diagnostic insights.

FAQs – Contrast MRI at DRHC Dubai

Q1: Why is contrast used in Dynamic Abdomen MRI?

A: Contrast enhances tissue and vascular visibility, allowing radiologists to assess organ function and detect abnormalities such as tumors or inflammation with greater precision.

Q2: How long does the Dynamic Abdomen MRI take?

A: The procedure typically takes 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the organs being evaluated and the number of phases required.

Q3: Is it painful or uncomfortable?

A: No, the procedure is non-invasive. You may feel a slight pinch during the IV contrast injection and will be asked to lie still during the scan.

Q4: Is it safe for people with kidney issues?

A: Patients with kidney impairment are carefully screened before the procedure. If necessary, an alternative protocol may be used.

Q5: Do I need to fast before the exam?

A: Yes, fasting for 4 to 6 hours is usually recommended to reduce motion artifacts and improve image quality.

Q6: Can Dynamic MRI replace CT or ultrasound?

A: While each imaging modality has its role, Dynamic MRI offers superior soft tissue contrast and is especially beneficial when CT or ultrasound findings are inconclusive or when avoiding radiation is important.

Q7: Who interprets the MRI results?

A: A consultant radiologist at DRHC with expertise in abdominal imaging will analyze the scan and send a comprehensive report to your referring physician.
