I have had about 8 of them in the last few years. In my case, I need to drink some contrast fluid 2 hours and then 1 hour prior to the scan. Then they insert an IV into back of hand for die injection while in the tube. If I close my eyes I avoid the claustrophobia. Maybe the actual time in the tube is about 10 minutes. It is a big rotating drum which the motorized "bed" carries you into and moves you about until they get the detail they are looking for. When the dye is injected through the IV, you get real hot and can feel the heat moving through your body as the dye is pumped through your blood by the heart. I find the IV part to be the most annoying part of the procedure. Maybe I am subject to more scrutiny because they are looking for soft tissue lymphoma surrounding the heart and kidneys.
I have had 2 MRIs, and I hate those things. They are LOUD and shake the body somewhat violently. I thought I was going to explode from the internal pressure (massive internal infection of over 1 liter in the pancreas). That is one trip I hope to never make again. Comparatively, the CT scan is a walk in the park.
