MRI for Gallbladder Cancer

Short for Magnetic Resonance Imaging, MRI is an innovative diagnostic technology that can be used to pinpoint the location of gallbladder cancer cells within the body. MRI uses magnetic energy and radio waves to create cross-sectional images or "slices" of the human body.

The main component of most MRI systems is a large tube-shaped or cylindrical magnet. You will be placed directly inside the MRI device so that our cancer experts can scan your body for possible occurrences of gallbladder cancer. Additionally, MRI helps CTCA radiologists and other specialists identify the stage of your gallbladder cancer.
