What is an MRI Left Leg Test?

Magnetic resonance imaging is an imaging test which uses a strong magnetic field and radio frequency waves to generate a complete detailed image of the internal structure of the left leg. The left leg MRI is limited to obtaining images of the structures in the left leg. The scan can include the thigh, knee, calf, ankle, and foot depending upon what a physician needs to see regarding a clinical condition, its severity, and the associated soft tissue structures.

In most cases, an MRI of the left leg will be requested when additional images of soft tissues are needed. Soft tissues are often not well visualised on other imaging methods; therefore, MRI is a superior choice when viewing soft tissue structures inside the leg.
