Same-Day MRI Scan
What is a same-day MRI scan?
A same-day MRI scan service provides complete diagnostic care within a single day, unlike traditional MRI scan where each step occurs on different days.
The process begins with an early morning doctor consultation, followed immediately by your MRI procedure. After your scan is complete, our radiologists promptly analyze the results, and you return for a follow-up consultation with your doctor that same afternoon to discuss your suitable treatment options.
Who benefits from same-day MRI scan?
This service is particularly beneficial for:
- Office workers who can only take a single day off from work for medical appointments
- Busy professionals with limited scheduling flexibility
- Patients with urgent diagnostic needs who require prompt results
- Individuals who prefer to complete their medical process in one visit rather than multiple trips
- People who experience anxiety about medical results and prefer not to wait days or weeks for answers
- Those with time-sensitive treatment decisions who need quick diagnostic information
Note: only available for Dr. Jerry Chen

Preparing for your MRI scan
- Before the scan, you will be asked to change into a hospital gown and remove any metal objects (jewellery, hearing aids, hair pins, etc.)
- MRI staff will go through a Safety Screening Checklist with you to ensure that you are safe to enter the MRI scan room.
- During the scan, you will lie on a cushioned table which enters the MRI machine. The machine is a small tunnel that is open on both ends.
- As the MRI machine makes loud noises, you will be given earplugs and/or headphones to block the sounds.
- It's important to remain as still as possible during the scan to prevent blurry images.
- Depending on the type of scan required, you may be asked to hold your breath briefly.
- The scan usually lasts between 30 minutes to an hour.
- In some cases, a contrast agent (a special dye) may be injected into a vein to enhance the images.
- You can resume your daily activities after the scan.
