MRI Parotid

MR Parotid Gland is a method to generate images of the salivary gland in high resolution. The test examines the parotid gland mass that suggests tumor expansion, tumor contour, signal characteristics, and tumor-nerve relationship.

Why is it done?

• To identify parotid gland inflammation (parotitis), measles, and salivary stones
• To diagnose salivary duct obstruction caused by calculi or compression
• To identify any lesion, tumor, or cyst (extra growth of salivary glands)
• To diagnose bulimia nervosa (eating disorder) related to parotid gland enlargement, obstruction, or inflammation.
