But that is his experience! Once you learn how to replace a smoke alarm, a carbon monoxide detector should be next. My recommendation: buy a good plug-in detector! If you want, get one with a battery back up. Put it near any potential CO source and another near your bedroom(s). And you will be safe and feel safe.
The most commonly used MRI contrast agent is the element gadolinium. As with radiographic agents, gadolinium can be injected into the blood vessels or injected into a joint. Gadolinium-enhanced MRI scans can be very helpful at showing subtle findings such as labral tears in the shoulder and hip cartilage damage.
As a result, it is often used for imaging the brain, spine, muscle, connective tissue and the inside of bones. During an MRI, a patient rests on a table and slides into a large tunnel-shaped scanner. Some exams require a contrast dye to be injected into a vein before the procedure. This helps certain areas show up better on the images. The procedure is painless and typically takes 30-60 minutes.
