What is a MRI SCAN LUMBAR SPINE Test in Bangalore ?

An MRI scan of the lumbar spine creates detailed images of the lower back’s bones, discs, spinal cord, nerve roots and soft tissues. It uses magnetic fields and radio waves rather than X-rays. This helps doctors see herniated discs, spinal stenosis, nerve compression, fractures, infections, tumors and inflammatory changes. The test is important for finding the cause of persistent low back pain, leg numbness or weakness. Doctors use the images to plan surgery, guide injections or other treatments, and monitor recovery or disease progression. Sometimes a contrast dye is used to highlight inflammation or tumors.

Why Take a MRI SCAN LUMBAR SPINE Test in Bangalore ?

MRI SCAN LUMBAR SPINE is an imaging study commonly ordered when a patient has persistent low back pain, sciatica, numbness or leg weakness. It is part of an imaging evaluation used when X-rays are insufficient or symptoms continue despite treatment. The scan helps diagnose herniated discs, spinal stenosis, fractures, tumors, infection and degenerative changes. Abnormal results can come from injury, wear-and-tear, infection or tumors, and a family history of spine disease may prompt earlier testing.

Frequently asked questions

For any unanswered questions, reach out to our support team via email. We will assist you as soon as possible

What does an MRI of the lumbar spine show in Bangalore?plus

Lumbar spine MRI shows detailed images of vertebrae, intervertebral discs, the spinal canal, spinal cord/cauda equina and exiting nerve roots, plus ligaments, muscles and other soft tissues. It detects degenerative changes, disc bulges or herniations, spinal stenosis, nerve compression, fractures, infection, tumors, marrow or inflammatory changes, alignment or congenital abnormalities, and postoperative scar or implant-related findings.

Can an MRI scan cause a rash in Bangalore?plus

MRI itself doesn’t typically cause a rash. Rarely, gadolinium contrast can trigger allergic-type skin reactions. Contact dermatitis may result from adhesives, antiseptics, or pads used during the scan. Very rarely, people with severe kidney disease can develop skin changes linked to gadolinium exposure. Report any rash, swelling, breathing difficulty, or spreading redness to staff or your doctor promptly.

What is the cost of MRI lumbar spine in India in Bangalore?plus

In India, an MRI lumbar spine typically costs about Rs 1,500–15,000. Non‑contrast scans at smaller centers usually range Rs 1,500–6,000; higher‑end 1.5T/3T machines or contrast studies can cost Rs 6,000–15,000 or more. Final price depends on city, machine strength, contrast use, and whether it’s a government hospital or private diagnostic center.

Do you lay on your back for a lumbar MRI in Bangalore?plus

Yes — for a lumbar MRI you usually lie on your back (supine) on the scanner table, often with a cushion under your knees and a coil placed over the lower back. You’ll go in feet‑first, must lie very still, and the scan can be noisy. In some cases a prone or alternate position is used for specific clinical needs.

Can a lumbar MRI show nerve damage in Bangalore?plus

Yes. Lumbar MRI can detect structural causes of nerve injury—herniated discs, spinal stenosis, fractures, tumors, or inflammation—and may show nerve-root compression, swelling or signal changes and contrast enhancement suggesting irritation. However, MRI depicts anatomy and structural damage, not microscopic or functional deficits; electromyography/nerve-conduction studies are often needed to confirm functional nerve damage and chronicity.

When to worry about MRI results in Bangalore?plus

Be concerned if an MRI shows a new or enlarging mass, acute bleeding, hydrocephalus, or contrast‑enhancing lesions, or if findings match worsening neurological signs—sudden weakness, numbness, vision or speech changes, seizures, severe headache, fever, or neck stiffness. Rapid change from prior scans also warrants attention. Contact your physician promptly; seek emergency care for sudden or severe symptoms.
