Just curious for people who have had MRI done for their dog.
Rusty’s liver test is on Wednesday at our regular vet, after that the next step is MRI.
We have scheduled Rusty’s MRI appointment for September 15, as I know specialists appointments have to be booked in advance, and if for any reason we have to cancel the appointment we can(as long as his liver test comes back good, we plan to keep the MRI for September 15).
However, the lady at the clinic that made the appointment, she told me it takes about 7 hours for the MRI, which means he is under anesthesia for the full 7 hrs!☹️😩
That really worries me, however I know we need to get to the bottom of this and I hope he doesn’t have another episode before then.
So my question, has the MRI actually taken 7 hrs for them to be under anesthesia for that whole 7 hrs MRI???
For people who have done the MRI, how long did it take for the MRI??
Any info or advice or experience with this would be greatly appreciated!
