Then we go into the MRI roomMommy and daddy can go in with you!The doctors will stay in the control room with the

computers

You will lay down on the

bed. Mommy or

daddy can lay down with you

We will slide you back into the big tunnel

Do not be afraid. You are safe!

You will lay here for 30 minutes.

You can watch a movie, listen to music, or sleep.

Remember to lay very still and quiet

If you move… The camera takes a blurry picture.

This is not good!

Remember to lay very still and quiet

When you lay very still and quiet… The camera takes a clear picture.

This is Good!

And now, you are done!
