MRI Brain With Diffusion Study

It is a painless and non-invasive test that uses a strong magnetic field, radio waves and a computer to make highly detailed images of white matter part of the brain, spinal cord, and surrounding soft tissues. Your doctor may advise this test to detect cellular cancers like glioma, acute brain ischemia, to evaluate medulloblastoma and stroke. It is also useful to find out leukoaraiosis or white matter disease.
