Oh Jesus. Yetus that fetus
jappie348
No its because mri scans are infinitely more expensive and theres often only one or 2 scanners in each hospital

They look the same as actual babies. Demonic. Get it away from me.

Pregnant people??

Sick I choose this method over ultrasound
BitchButcher
No, that's not the reason. Ultrasound has costs that are less than what the person operating it earns in the same time. MRI is ~300-400€

No, the reason is that MRIs are fucking expensive to do, vs a cheap ultrasound.

no it's because MRIs reveal that your unborn child is the devil incarnate, pay attention

Not all ultrasound are the same. 19 week one of my eldest attached.

Ultrasounds have expanded a lot. They now do 3D and show blood flow. Also have color added to show more variation in details.

Also because ultrasounds are dirt cheap and quick. MRIs take an hour, require huge machinery, and heat you up, and cost a lot.

dycedycedyce
just had an MRI on my brain a few weeks ago...NOPE. NO THANKS. DO NOT WANT.
ObliqueRay
But ultrasounds don't let you repost tired old memes for cheap internet points.
"heat you up" What exactly do you mean by this? Sounds like I'm saving money for gas and food. ;)
Annemoon
Any scan-sequence I've used was rarely over 10min, 10 min should be like +0,1 degrees max. The machine is more expensive though
Like 2 hours of your most intense sequencing (which they just do not use in hospitals) does maaaybe +0.5 degrees C
bgd115
Yeah. This is the actual reason.
Raeilgunne
I did notice that band of heat when I got one. Wasn't much, but it was there. Only took 20 minutes though. just a lumbar scan.
betterthanexpected
When my wife was pregnant we just thumped on her like a watermelon.
Kalesto
In US I pay $700 per ultrasound. That’s after insurance discount. In Russia I had MRI at private clinic, paid $70. Tell me about dirt cheap.

That’s nice. I wish we’ll get to that point one day. I’m about to have a hold and it will run me about 10k with health insurance. For which>
I’m paying $650 a month. I wish we could just pay higher taxes and have universal healthcare.
MrRogersNeighborhood
I would assume it would be difficult to image if the fetus/baby/parasite is moving.
Username does not check out
PalaverQuader
this. ppl. moving around while scanning isnt what the doctor prescribed.
erikna
YES, that would suck ass to get to work on a technical basis
That too! It's hard to get adults to lay still, can't imagine an unborn baby. It's generally not an hour, a single scan should be 10min tops
OfCloudlessClimesAndStarrySkies
scans can take longer than that depending on the body part & if contrast is used! Like a spine section takes a while bc it’s so big :)
That's a good point, I did brain scans, it makes sense now you mention it
bumblebea12
Are they cheap relative to MRIs? Bc I keep getting these $500 bills...
VladimirsKacs
Tell me you're American without telling me you're American.
cheddarhat
MRIs cost much, much more. The liquid helium alone is a bear.
Ahh gotcha they're cheap by comparison.
As long as you're comparing, it's cheaper and more expensive than guessing.
Where's the fun in that lol
And make your larve look like homer Simpson. Who wants that inside of them?

On the plus side, they have headphones in them and you get to listen to music when you’re in the hole.
cybernetcrash
Oh man I wish, they just give me moldable earplugs that work half the time.
Do they care if you're high or a little drunk?
65454685132465846865163
Yes if you're getting a pregnancy MRI they're probably a bit concerned if you're drunk
They probably have to scan dozens of people who are on tons of painkillers, so they’re used high people. Idk why anyone would get drunk 1/
Before going in for their appointment. Unless you’re such an alcoholic that you can’t go a couple days without booze it would probably 2/
Somnophobe
Also, MRI machines are not so great for people with even mild claustrophobia.
cheeseplate1971
I’m not claustrophobic but my shoulders barely fit in the damn things.
laurafrancesca
Lord they are awful. Even "open" mris

i only knew of these since a few years. unfortunately there only a few in this country, none close to me, and are in high demand. I'll >
stick with the one 10 minutes from me. it's modern and has music now.
kjb72
They gave me headphones when I had one but only one ear piece worked. The noise, it was awful for sound sensitive me.
Tunisia
You could probably put pregnant people in legs-first.
Doesn’t matter; for an MRI on my ankle, they had to put me in far enough that only the top half of my head was sticking out.
rockstarjesus
That's what the Ativan is for. Ask me how I know.
KiwiGameDev
How do you know?
It's literally the only way they can get me to not freak the fuck out during an MRI.
I’ll believe you. Never had one myself
ClessAurion
Pshhh costs a lot hesays. I'm pretty sure I can go to ebay and buy a second hand one for half price, only like $150k
florpglorp
Thats like 15 mris to pay itself off
In the US atleast
Christ, its so sad that isn't a joke ffs
That is what, like, as expensive as fixing a broken toe in the US?
Aktchuwally, my daughter got a cast over Labor Day weekend, cost $50 - and that's because I opted for fiberglass wrapping instead of cotton.
I mean, the fact that you had to pay from your own pocket instead of through taxes is such a foreign concept to me already... :/
It depends on your system. Not all UHCs are the same; some charge you at point of use, others do not.
an hour depending on what they need. when i have my yearly brainmri it takes roughly half an hour. the time they did one of my wrist it was>
15-20 minutes.
My brain mri takes like 20-30 minutes but my brain+spine mri takes like 45min-1hour
sounds about right. but i never take them together. NF1?
Nah I got a grade 2/3 primary brain tumor.
