An abdominal MRI can find out if there are problems with the solid abdominal organs as well as the soft tissues and bones.
The solid organs in the abdomen are the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and kidneys. It can detect the presence of liver cysts, hepatic hemangiomas, liver cancer, cirrhosis, and liver metastases.
Abdominal MRI can also detect gallbladder for cholecystitis and gallbladder cancer; pancreas for pancreatic cancer, pancreatic cysts and pancreatitis; spleen for splenic lymphoma and splenic hemangioma; both kidneys for kidney tumors, cysts, hydronephrosis, and nephritis; and bladder and ureter for stones, tumors, and inflammation.
Men can find out whether there are tumors and hyperplasia in the prostate gland; women can check whether there are uterine fibroids, endometrial cancer, ovarian cysts, ovarian cancer, ovarian teratoma, etc. in the uterus and ovaries. With the exception of the intestines, MRI has a high diagnostic value for all of the above organs.
