Choose from Three Options
- $39 for an MRI carotid artery scan with 3-D imaging and private consultation (a $700 value)
- $39 for an MRI brain aneurysm scan with 3-D imaging and private consultation (a $900 value)
- $69 for an MRI carotid and brain aneurysm scan with 3-D imaging and private consultation (a $1,500 value)
An MRI machine will scan and produce 3-D images of your carotid arteries, brain arteries, or both. Then, during a private consultation, a physician will highlight any signs of carotid artery plaque or a potential brain aneurysm and work with you to develop a proactive plan to decrease stroke risk. You will also receive a follow-up report summarizing the details of your consultation. Appointments typically last around 45 minutes.
MRI Pathways
MRI Pathways helps patients prevent chronic medical conditions such as stroke, back pain, and arthritis through a combination of advanced screening technology and lifestyle changes. Using MRI technology, the facility screens for carotid-artery narrowing, potentially malignant growths, and even brain aneurysms.
