How much does an animal MRI cost at MaxPetZ GK 1 in Greater Kailash?

MRI pricing for pets at MaxPetZ GK 1 depends on the region being scanned (brain, spine, orthopaedic, or soft tissue), the size of the animal, and anaesthesia requirements. For an accurate quote tailored to your pet's needs, please use the booking form on this page to speak with our team directly.

Is MRI safe for pets?

Veterinary MRI does not use ionising radiation, making it a safe imaging modality for soft tissue evaluation. The primary consideration is the general anaesthesia required to keep pets still during the scan. At MaxPetZ GK 1, every patient undergoes a pre-anaesthetic evaluation and is continuously monitored by a veterinary anaesthesiologist throughout the procedure to minimise risk.

How long does a pet MRI scan take at MaxPetZ GK 1?

The duration of a veterinary MRI scan varies depending on the body region being imaged and the complexity of the case. The scan itself typically takes between 30 and 90 minutes. Additional time is required for pre-anaesthetic preparation and post-anaesthetic recovery. Our team will give you a more precise estimate during your consultation.

When should I bring my pet for an MRI in Greater Kailash?

Your veterinarian may recommend an MRI if your pet is experiencing seizures, unexplained neurological signs, difficulty walking, neck or back pain, suspected spinal cord disease, joint injuries, or soft tissue masses. If your pet has any of these symptoms and standard X-ray or ultrasound has not provided a clear diagnosis, an MRI referral is worth discussing with your vet.

What is the difference between an MRI and a CT scan for animals?

MRI produces superior detail of soft tissues — including the brain, spinal cord, nerves, muscles, and ligaments — without exposing your pet to ionising radiation. CT scans are faster and better suited to bone structures and certain thoracic or abdominal assessments. Your veterinary specialist at MaxPetZ GK 1 will recommend the most appropriate imaging modality based on your pet's clinical presentation.

What is animal MRI and what does MaxPetZ GK 1 offer in Greater Kailash?

MaxPetZ GK 1 in Greater Kailash, New Delhi provides advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for pets — a safe, non-invasive diagnostic technique that produces highly detailed images of the brain, spinal cord, joints, muscles, and soft tissues. MRI is available daily from 10 am to 8 pm (11 am on Sundays) and is performed under carefully monitored general anaesthesia to ensure your pet remains still and comfortable throughout the scan.
