If a person suffers from claustrophobia, or the scan will be performed on a young child, then sedation of
various types may be used. In such cases special preparation will be required for the sedation procedure.
Mid-Michigan MRI cannot dispense or provide any medications for the MRI procedure. For this reason we must
coordinate any use of medication or sedation with other parties such as Sparrow Hospital or your referring
physician.
Please bring such situations to the attention of your physician and the scheduling staff at Mid-Michigan MRI
before scheduling the MRI procedure. If you will be taking medication prescribed by your
physician, or you will be undergoing sedation, then please have someone else drive you to and from the
facility. More detailed information will be provided if you are scheduled for a sedation exam.
