What is a MRI Scan Sella Test in Gurugram ?

What is MRI Scan Sella?

An MRI Scan Sella is an imaging test that creates detailed pictures of the pituitary gland and the bony sella turcica around it. It shows gland size, shape, and nearby structures. It is non-invasive and shows internal structures directly, providing information that blood and urine tests cannot.

What does MRI Scan Sella show?

The pituitary controls many important hormones for growth, reproduction, and metabolism. Detecting tumors, cysts, inflammation, or structural changes is important for diagnosing hormonal problems and vision threats. Doctors use these images to confirm a diagnosis, plan surgery or treatment, monitor tumor size over time, and check for complications after treatment. The scan helps connect symptoms such as headaches, vision changes, or unexplained hormone imbalances to an underlying structural cause.

What symptoms suggest MRI Scan Sella may be needed?

A doctor may recommend MRI Scan Sella when a patient reports localised pain, swelling, or injury, a lump or restricted movement, or an abnormal finding on an earlier test that needs to be examined directly. GetVisit makes testing convenient in Gurugram, with lab slots and home collection in Nirvana Country, Sushant Lok, and nearby areas.

How is MRI Scan Sella done?

No needle or sample is involved. At an accredited imaging centre serving Nirvana Country and Sushant Lok, Gurugram, a radiographer performs the scan, which is painless and usually completed within 10 to 15 minutes. A qualified radiologist interprets the images and issues a report you can access on GetVisit. (Home collection does not apply to imaging.)

How accurate is MRI Scan Sella?

GetVisit partners only with accredited imaging centres in and around Nirvana Country, Sushant Lok, and Gurugram that use maintained, calibrated equipment and qualified radiographers. Every scan is interpreted by a qualified radiologist, and reports are accepted by hospital networks, specialists, and insurers across India.

Are there any risks to MRI Scan Sella?

Imaging is safe and non-invasive. Ultrasound and MRI use no ionising radiation; X-ray and CT use carefully controlled low doses justified by the diagnostic benefit. Inform staff at the Nirvana Country or Sushant Lok, Gurugram centre if you are pregnant or have implants or metal devices, so precautions can be taken.

MRI sella (pituitary) costs vary by country and facility.

MRI Scan Sella Test Preparation in Gurugram

Fasting and dietary instructions:

Most imaging scans need no fasting. Some abdominal ultrasounds require a few hours of fasting or a full bladder, so follow the specific instruction shown when you book, or ask the centre.

Medication guidance:

Continue your regular medication unless told otherwise. Tell the centre if you have diabetes, kidney problems, or allergies, especially if a contrast study is planned.

What to bring:

Bring your doctor's referral, a valid photo ID, your insurance card if using cashless OPD, and any previous scans or reports so the radiologist can compare.

Timing:

Book a slot that suits you at an accredited GetVisit centre in Sector 15 or Golf Course Road, Gurugram. Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners, and remove jewellery before the scan.

Why Take a MRI Scan Sella Test in Gurugram ?

When does a doctor order MRI Scan Sella?

MRI Scan Sella is typically ordered as a dedicated pituitary imaging study when hormonal tests or symptoms suggest a pituitary problem. It is used after abnormal blood hormone levels, new vision changes, severe persistent headaches, or when monitoring a known pituitary tumor.

Who should get MRI Scan Sella done in Gurugram?

Gurugram's dense corporate population, severe NCR air pollution, high diabetes and cardiovascular burden, extreme seasonal temperatures, and monsoon infection risk make regular preventive diagnostic testing an essential health investment for residents across the city. Imaging benefits patients with pain, swelling, a palpable lump, injury, or an abnormal earlier finding, as well as those monitoring a known condition. GetVisit helps residents of Sushant Lok, New Colony, and across Gurugram book accredited imaging with clear pricing.

What can MRI Scan Sella help detect?

The scan helps diagnose adenomas, cysts, empty sella, and other structural lesions. Abnormal results most often come from tumors, inflammation, prior surgery or trauma, or congenital changes. A family history of pituitary tumors or genetic syndromes may make this test more important.

What do MRI Scan Sella results mean?

Findings are graded from normal to significant, and comparison with any previous scan shows whether a known finding is stable, improving, or progressing. Your doctor explains the report in the context of your symptoms. See the FAQs below for more detail on this scan.

How often should MRI Scan Sella be repeated?

For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends , typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.

What happens after MRI Scan Sella results are ready?

Results are delivered to your phone and stored securely on GetVisit. Any value the laboratory flags as critical is escalated for urgent review, and for everything else your doctor or a verified specialist can guide the next step at your convenience.

What is sella in MRI?plus

The sella (sella turcica) on MRI is the bony pituitary fossa in the sphenoid bone that contains the pituitary gland and related structures. MRI assesses its size, shape, gland signal, and contrast enhancement to detect pituitary adenomas, cysts, hemorrhage, or empty sella. Coronal and sagittal T1-weighted pre- and post-contrast images best demonstrate gland anatomy and lesions.

What is the cost of MRI sella?plus

MRI sella (pituitary) costs vary by country and facility. In India private centers commonly charge roughly ₹2,000–10,000. In the UK it’s provided free via the NHS but private scans cost about £200–£800. In the US out‑of‑pocket prices typically range from $400 to $3,500. Final price depends on contrast use, scanner strength (1.5T vs 3T), radiologist fees, and insurance.

What does sella mean in the brain?plus

The sella (short for sella turcica) is a saddle-shaped bony depression in the sphenoid bone at the skull base that houses and protects the pituitary gland. It provides structural support and is an important landmark on brain imaging; enlargement or deformity of the sella can indicate pituitary tumors, cysts, or other sellar-region pathology affecting hormonal function and nearby structures.

Can empty sella cause eye problems?plus

Empty sella syndrome is often an incidental finding and usually causes no symptoms. However, if the pituitary is displaced or a coexisting pituitary lesion compresses the optic chiasm, it can cause visual problems, blurred vision, reduced acuity, visual field defects (classically bitemporal hemianopia), or double vision. Any visual change warrants prompt neuro‑ophthalmic and endocrine evaluation.

Is MRI Scan Sella safe if I am pregnant?plus

Tell the centre before MRI Scan Sella if you are or might be pregnant. Ultrasound and MRI use no ionising radiation; for X-ray or CT the team will decide the safest approach or suggest an alternative.

Can MRI Scan Sella be combined with a health package?plus

Yes. MRI Scan Sella can be booked on its own or alongside related tests and packages on GetVisit. You can compare options and pricing before you confirm.
