MRI SCAN WHOLE SPINE SCREENING DEGENERATIVE, in Prayagraj

Fasting and dietary instructions:

No special fasting is needed for this test. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and high-fat foods in the 12 hours before the test for the most consistent results. Stay well hydrated before the appointment.

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:

Bring your prescription, a government-issued ID, and your OPD insurance details. Inform the phlebotomist of any recent illness, active infections, allergy to latex, or history of fainting during blood draws , so appropriate care can be taken during the procedure.

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.
