An MRI brain with and without contrast is an imaging test that takes detailed pictures of your brain using magnetic fields and radio waves instead of radiation. Your doctor might order this test to help evaluate symptoms like headaches, dizziness, memory problems, or suspected tumors, or to monitor a known brain condition. During the procedure, you'll lie still inside a tunnel-shaped machine for about 30-45 minutes while it creates images; for the "with contrast" part, you'll receive an injection of dye through an IV that helps certain brain structures show up more clearly on the images.
