Can I eat before the exam?
Yes. There are no eating restrictions prior to having an MRI. However if your doctor has requested the use of a contrast agent for your MRI then it would be best not to eat 2 hours prior to your exam so as to further minimize the already unlikely event of nausea.

I’m very claustrophobic. What should I do?
If you anticipate that a high level of anxiety might otherwise prevent you from remaining still while undergoing your exam please ask your doctor to prescribe a sedative for you to take just prior to your exam. Such a request is not uncommon.
