Combined brain and cervical spine MRI in a single appointment at a package rate. Covers the full brain protocol plus cervical disc and cord assessment for integrated neurological evaluation.
The brain plus cervical spine package combines the full brain MRI protocol with the cervical spine examination in one session at 13,800 CZK, saving 3,800 CZK compared to booking both individually. This combination is frequently clinically relevant because many neurological conditions — such as multiple sclerosis, Chiari malformations, and cervical myelopathy — involve pathology at the craniocervical junction that bridges both anatomical regions. The brain component covers the cerebral hemispheres, posterior fossa, brainstem, and skull base with standard multi-sequence imaging. The cervical spine component extends from C1 through C7 with disc-level axial images. The radiologist interprets both studies together, which is particularly important when assessing demyelinating disease burden (brain and cord lesion counts combined influence treatment decisions), craniocervical junction anomalies, or the proximal extent of cervical cord pathology. This package is commonly requested for patients with neurological symptoms that could originate from either the brain or cervical cord — such as upper limb weakness, gait disturbance, or mixed sensory complaints. It is also the standard initial imaging workup for suspected multiple sclerosis per international guidelines.
