can they put you to sleep mri. i'm highly claustrophobic and need an mri of the spine. i don't think i can do it. taking xanax would not help. i've tried it.
it would be too risky to put you under anesthesia for an mri. you would need to have an anesthesiologist present and be monitored. talk to the radiologist and maybe a stronger dose of xanax or different sedative can be given.
