Precision Exams
Prime Radiology
Center
Advanced equipment and radiologists who see you in person mean faster, more accurate exams — same-day scan, same-day reading and same-day explanation of your results.
Precise Diagnosis, Fast Results
Brain Imaging (MRI / CT)
Prime Radiology performs detailed brain imaging on the latest university hospital-grade MRI and CT systems for accurate diagnosis and early detection of brain disease. High-resolution brain CT quickly reveals bleeding, injury and skull fractures, while brain MRI allows precise diagnosis of a wide range of conditions, including stroke, brain hemorrhage, brain tumors and dementia. Our medical director, a former university hospital professor and radiologist, personally handles every step — from the scan to the reading and the explanation of your results. With our One-Day System you receive accurate results on the day of your exam, understand your condition clearly, and your care team can plan treatment without delay.
Precise diagnosis and fast results —
trusted brain imaging that protects your health and peace of mind.
Types of Brain Imaging
From MRI and CT to carotid ultrasound, Prime Radiology examines
the health of your brain precisely with a range of imaging tests.
Brain MRI
Brain MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
- Diagnoses brain tumors, stroke (cerebral infarction and hemorrhage), dementia, encephalitis and other neurological disorders.
- High-resolution images show structural changes in the brain in fine detail.
- Involves no radiation and shows the soft tissue of the brain clearly for an accurate diagnosis.
Recommended for
- Memory loss or
suspected dementia - Persistent or
recurring headaches - Dizziness, poor
balance or trouble
walking - Signs of stroke
(weakness on one
side, slurred
speech)
Vessel MRI
Brain Vessel MRI (= Brain MRA)
- Takes detailed images of the blood vessels in the brain.
- Can be performed without contrast and is effective for assessing narrowing, aneurysms and blood clots.
- Useful for diagnosing cerebrovascular stenosis and brain aneurysms.
Recommended for
- Suspected or
family history of
brain aneurysm - Checking for
narrowed or
blocked vessels - Chronic headache
or dizziness of
vascular origin - CT contrast not
advised due to
kidney problems
Brain CT
Brain CT (Computed Tomography)
- Quickly identifies brain hemorrhage, head injury, skull fractures and brain tumors.
- Faster than MRI, allowing immediate diagnosis in urgent situations.
- One of the most effective tests for detecting bleeding in the brain.
Recommended for
- Sudden paralysis
or slurred speech - Drowsiness or
confusion after
a head injury - Sudden severe
headache (possible
bleeding) - Emergencies that
need a fast
diagnosis
Brain Vessel CT
Brain Vessel CT (Computed Tomography)
- After a contrast injection, CT images the brain vessels to check for narrowing, blockage and aneurysms.
- Completed in a short time, with 3D images that show the structure of the vessels.
- Shows the condition of brain vessels even when MRI is not possible, for example with a pacemaker.
Recommended for
- Suspected or
family history of
brain aneurysm - Checking for
narrowed or
blocked vessels - When MRI
is not possible - Stroke risks such
as hypertension
or diabetes
Carotid Ultrasound
Carotid Ultrasound
- Checks for narrowing of the carotid arteries (a stroke risk factor) and arteriosclerosis.
- A non-invasive test that evaluates blood vessel health in real time.
Recommended for
- Hypertension,
diabetes or high
cholesterol - Past mini-stroke
(TIA) or stroke - Headache, dizziness,
brief speech or
vision loss - Family history of
early heart disease
(men <55, women <65)
Brain Imaging
Comparison & Key Features
Early detection matters most for brain disease.
For stroke and dementia in particular, regular check-ups before symptoms appear are the best prevention.
