MRI SCAN BRAIN, CP ANGLE WITH CONTRAST, in Mysuru

Fasting and dietary instructions:

No fasting is required for this test. However, as a general precaution, avoid alcohol and a heavy, fatty meal the evening before any blood test. These can temporarily alter several commonly tested markers even in tests that do not require strict fasting.

Medication guidance:

Continue taking all regular prescribed medication unless your doctor has specifically asked you to stop before this test. Inform the lab staff about all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you are currently taking. Some substances affect specific test values, and this information helps your doctor interpret results accurately.

What to bring:

Carry your doctor's test order, a photo ID, and your corporate OPD insurance card to the appointment. If you have had this test done before, bring your previous reports , comparing values over time is clinically more meaningful than interpreting a single reading in isolation.

Timing:

For most blood tests, a morning appointment after overnight fasting gives the most standardised results. If your test does not require fasting, a morning slot is still preferable as it minimises the influence of the day's food intake and physical activity on marker levels.
