What is MRI Left Parotid Region Test?

Parotid tumours are abnormal cell growths (tumours) that develop in the parotid glands. The parotid glands are two salivary glands located on each side of the face just in front of the ears. Salivary glands make saliva to help with chewing and digestion.

The deep or superficial location of the left parotid gland mass, as well as any additional mass that cannot be determined by physical examination, tumour extension, tumour contour, signal features, and the relationship between the tumour and the facial nerve, are all indicated by MRI.

Why is it done?

To determine the size of your tumour, your doctor may recommend imaging tests of your left parotid gland. If your parotid tumour is cancerous, you may need to have tests to see if the cancer has spread. Ultrasound and MRI scans are needed.
