What is an MRI scan?

MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create clear images of the inside of your body.

An MRI scan is safe, painless and does not use X-rays or ionising radiation. It can be used to look at areas such as the brain, joints, muscles, nerves, organs and spine.

During your scan, you will lie on a table that moves into the MRI scanner while images are taken.


Why have an MRI scan?

If you’re experiencing symptoms, or you have doubts about some aspect of your health, a scan could provide reassurance that all is well. If there’s a problem, early diagnosis could help ensure you get the best care possible.

At Vista Health, we offer full-body MRI scans that can provide a ‘big picture’ view of your health. However, if you have pain, specific symptoms or another reason to be concerned about a particular condition, a focused scan of the relevant body part may be all that’s needed.

Your questions answered

If you're considering an MRI scan in London, you may have a few questions. We've answered some of the most common questions below. If you can't find what you're looking for, our Patient Care Advisors are here to help.

Can you help me understand my results? 

If you’d like to discuss your scan results with one of our GPs, you can arrange a consultation. There’s a 20% discount on consultation fees if you book when you arrange your scan.  

Can I refer myself? 

We accept self-referral in most cases. Self-referral allows you to take control of your own health with direct access to our own specialist diagnostic services. We also offer a GP consultation service to provide you with a referral if you need one.

What if I need an open or upright scanner?

For some patients - including those with restricted mobility, anxiety and people with claustrophobia - the standard ‘tunnel-style’ MRI scanner may be challenging. An alternative is the open and upright scanner, which can be more comfortable for some patients. This provides comfort and reassurance, and offers a variety of scanning positions including sitting, standing, leaning, and lying. 

What body part can I have scanned?

We offer a range of MRI scans to assist you in obtaining the diagnosis you require.

How long does an MRI scan take?

Most scans take between 20 and 40 minutes, depending on the size of the area we’re investigating. Please arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment. 

How much will an MRI scan cost?

Our MRI scans start from £249. The fee includes a full written report within 3 working days, and access to your images online to view, download or share with a medical professional such as your GP. When you book online, you’ll have the option to spread the cost over three months, interest free.  

How soon can I have my MRI scan?

With MRI facilities across the UK, we can offer scans at short notice. We work evenings, weekends and bank holidays.
