[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD has had no sedation MRIs at Children’s Hospital, but she was older for her first one. 5th grade, I think? I wonder if it is your child’s age that triggers the general anesthesia requirement? There is an office of Children’s that offers “TV watching” MRIs, I’m pretty sure the DC campus doesn’t. I think it’s in MD. I have also gotten several brain MRIs and I have been in there with my DD. It is extremely hard to keep you head still and could be very anxiety provoking as they put kind of a brace around your head to help keep you still. I would do Childrens over INOVA because of their pediatric expertise regardless of what happens with the sedation question.[/quote] Gotcha - I think I'll contact Children's and see if I can talk with someone. I feel like Fairfax is being quite pushy. They already called me twice and my husband once to do the pre-op call (I was helping our younger kiddo and missed the calls). Thanks for your reply![/quote]
