A brain and head MRI at MR Centrum Titanium produces detailed images of the brain and surrounding head structures, including specialised areas, without using ionising radiation. The scan is read by a subspecialised neuroradiology team led by doc. MUDr. Andrea Šprláková-Puková, Ph.D., with several Ph.D.-level radiologists covering neuroradiology and ORL imaging. The examination takes roughly 15–40 minutes in a modern scanner with hearing protection, fresh-air ventilation, and continuous visual and signal-button contact with staff. Intravenous contrast may be added when clinically indicated. Patients are asked to arrive 15 minutes early without facial make-up or hair products, as these can contain metallic particles that degrade image quality.
About this treatment
Magnetic resonance imaging is the reference method for examining the brain and soft tissues of the head: it visualises grey and white matter, the brainstem, cerebellum, pituitary region, inner ear structures and orbits in high contrast, without any radiation exposure. It is commonly requested to investigate persistent headaches, dizziness, suspected demyelinating disease, hearing or balance disorders, visual disturbances, and to follow up known findings.
The centre
MR Centrum Titanium is a newly opened (2026) private MRI-only facility in the Titanium business complex in central Brno. Because the centre performs MRI exclusively, scheduling is fast and the workflow — phone booking, safety questionnaire, examination, radiology report — is tightly managed. The reporting team is unusually senior for an outpatient centre: the professional guarantor doc. MUDr. Andrea Šprláková-Puková, Ph.D. leads ten named radiologists…

Approximately 6,000 Kč for a self-pay brain/head MRI (one region) — the typical Czech private-MRI baseline; the centre does not publish an online price list, so confirm the exact price when booking by phone. Intravenous contrast, if clinically indicated, is typically charged extra (around 2,000 Kč at comparable Czech centres). A 50% trial-operation discount on MR examinations ran until mid-June 2026.
