Do you need a family member with you for the MRI?

MRI generally does not require family members to accompany the patient, but MRI requires the patient to cooperate with the doctor for the examination, so patients who are not able to cooperate do not do this examination as much as possible, if it is not convenient for some activities or have fear of the examination, need to accompany the family, you can go in a family member as a chaperone. The examination requires the same for patients and family members, if there are metal objects carried on the body or in the body, they must be removed in time. If they cannot be removed, the specific nature of the metal object will determine whether the test can be performed. It is usually difficult for children to complete an MRI even when accompanied by a family member, so sedation of the child is usually required prior to the examination.
