Brain MRI

Native 1.5T brain MRI on Siemens MAGNETOM Sola covering the cerebral hemispheres, cerebellum, and brainstem. Standard multi-sequence protocol for headache workup, tumour screening, and neurological investigation.

The brain MRI at Help-MR uses the Siemens MAGNETOM Sola 1.5T scanner to produce detailed multi-planar images of the entire intracranial compartment. The standard protocol includes T1-weighted, T2-weighted, FLAIR, and diffusion-weighted sequences in axial, sagittal, and coronal planes. At EUR 130 this is among the most affordable brain MRI options in Central Europe while maintaining clinical-grade 1.5T image quality. The MAGNETOM Sola platform, installed in 2021, incorporates BioMatrix technology for consistent image quality across patient anatomies. The FLAIR sequence is particularly sensitive to white matter lesions associated with multiple sclerosis, small vessel ischaemic disease, and periventricular pathology. For patients requiring vascular assessment, a combined brain plus MR angiography package is available at approximately EUR 155. Contrast-enhanced brain MRI for tumour characterisation or inflammatory conditions is offered at approximately EUR 230. An English-language written report can be requested for EUR 43. The centre is located roughly one hour from Budapest by car or train, making it a practical day-trip option for medical tourists seeking lower prices without sacrificing scanner quality.
