Private MRI in Dartford, Kent

Q: I am claustrophobic. Can I still have an MRI?

We understand that MRI scanners can feel confined. Our modern scanners have wider bores (openings) designed to reduce anxiety, and our radiographers are highly trained in supporting nervous patients. You will be in constant communication with our team throughout the scan.

Q: How long does the scan take?

Most single-part MRI scans take between 30 to 45 minutes.

Important Clinical Information

Is an MRI right for me?

MRI scans are exceptionally safe, but the strong magnetic field means they are not suitable for everyone.

You cannot have an MRI if you have:

A cardiac pacemaker or defibrillator
Certain cochlear implants
Specific types of aneurysm clips or metallic fragments in your eyes

Note: If you are pregnant, particularly in your first trimester, or if you suffer from severe claustrophobia, please contact our clinical team before booking so we can accommodate your needs safely.

Advanced Diagnostics

The Gold Standard in Diagnostics.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a sophisticated, non-invasive imaging technique. It uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed, cross-sectional pictures of the inside of your body.

Unlike X-rays or CT scans, MRI uses no ionising radiation. This makes it a safe and highly effective method for examining soft tissues, organs, joints, and the nervous system with exceptional clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an injection (contrast dye)?

Most MRI scans do not require contrast. If your scan needs a gadolinium-based dye to highlight specific tissues or blood vessels, this is an optional add-on for £120, applied only if clinically required and confirmed by our team.
