MRI scans are carried out on the basis of a doctor's referral. The medical referral (requisition) will be issued by the referring/treating physician based on the clinical examination.
MRI examinations are performed on weekdays and in the late afternoon.
Non-urgent examinations are also scheduled for Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
Urgent examinations are always ordered by the referring/treating physician in consultation with the MRI radiologist.
We have some of the shortest appointment times in Prague and the Central Bohemia region, as well as in the country. We perform MRI examinations on the basis of a medical referral (request form) issued by the referring physician or a general practitioner on the basis of a clinical examination.
As a standard, medical descriptions for MRI examinations are made and delivered to the attending physician within 4 working days. If you have a scheduled appointment with your referring physician for an MRI within these 4 days, please contact the physician to verify that the description of the examination has already been received by your physician.
Image data from the MRI scan is provided on a flash drive if needed.

X-ray
Ordering
Patients do not make an appointment for a scan, patients are examined on a rolling basis.
Our department - in accordance with the current legislation - does not carry out any examinations with ionising radiation (i.e. X-rays) without a medical recommendation, only at the request of the patient. The medical recommendation must be based on a clinical examination and cannot be issued at the request of the patient by a doctor in the field of radiology and imaging - a radiodiagnostic specialist.
If necessary, image data from the scans are provided on a CD which can be read on a standard computer.
No preparation is required prior to the scans.
Medical descriptions of the examination are usually made on the same working day, within 3 days of the examination at the latest.
