Patient's question:
An 8-year-old child has headaches about two or three times a month. Today, the headache is quite severe, and she is crying. She has been thoroughly examined before, and there were no problems. This time, we plan to do an MRI deep examination first. It's a hospital in Shanghai. How much will this thorough examination cost? Can it be a comprehensive examination?Doctor's answer:
The price of brain MRI varies and is related to factors such as the level of the hospital and the economic development of the region. A 0.3T MRI costs around 200 yuan, while the prices for 1.0T, 1.5T, and even 3T MRI increase significantly, with a 1.5T MRI costing about 700-800 yuan. It can provide a comprehensive check. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital for a blood test and a brain CT scan. Maintain a balanced diet with enhanced nutrition, avoid extremely cold, spicy, greasy foods, drink more water, and do not overexert yourself.
