What it shows

Tumours, abscesses, infections such as neurocysticercosis.

Why it is done

Seizures, headache with neurological signs.

Preparation

Remove metal objects. If contrast is used you may need to fast for a few hours; tell staff about allergies, kidney disease, diabetes medicines (metformin) or pregnancy.

Radiation & safety

Typical effective dose 2 to 4 mSv, similar to about 8 months to 1.5 years of natural background radiation (about 3 mSv a year). Tell staff if you are or might be pregnant; the benefit usually outweighs the small risk, and shielding or alternatives can be considered.

How long it takes

10 to 15 minutes. General information, not a diagnosis. Results must be interpreted by a qualified health worker.
