hello... my father had a paralytic attack last night. the paralytic attack was there for some time only. we got a mri done which was normal. could not get the vessel mri done yesterday , should we get it done at the earliest or is he suppose to rest for 48 hours pls reply
Hello, From what I understand it seems like a transient ischemic attack, which is a transitory deficit leaving no lesions on MRI imaging.  Of course, it must be investigated regarding the cause and vessel imaging like vessel MRI (or Anglo CT, Doppler ultrasound when MRI is not available) is a vital test among others.  There is no reason to delay it, no reason to rest if hospital structures offer this test should be done at the earliest. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
