Torso MRI Perth Chest, Abdomen & Pelvis MRI
What Is Torso MRI Perth?
The Torso MRI is a targeted preventive imaging protocol focusing on the body’s three major body cavities — the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. It assesses the organ systems where a significant proportion of serious disease originates, including the liver, kidneys, pancreas, spleen, adrenal glands, pelvic organs, and regional lymph nodes.
For patients who are not yet ready for a full whole body protocol, or who have a specific interest in abdominal and pelvic health surveillance, the Torso MRI provides a clinically meaningful assessment at a more accessible price point — without compromising on scanner quality or radiologist expertise.
What Does It Assess?
Liver — lesions, fatty liver (MASLD/NASH), haemangiomas, cirrhotic changes
Kidneys — renal cell carcinoma, cysts (simple and complex), hydronephrosis
Pancreas — cystic lesions (IPMN), ductal dilatation, early masses
Spleen — size, lesions, accessory spleens
Adrenal glands — adenomas, phaeochromocytomas, incidentalomas
Thorax — mediastinal lymph nodes, pleural findings, pericardium
Pelvic organs — prostate, uterus, ovaries, bladder, pelvic lymph nodes
Abdominal aorta — aneurysm screening
Who Should Consider This?
- Family history of liver, kidney, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer
- Known risk factors for organ-specific disease (fatty liver, prior hepatitis, etc.)
- Those wanting abdominal and pelvic surveillance without a full body protocol
- Patients who have had prior abdominal imaging and want a radiation-free surveillance option
- Budget-conscious individuals seeking a clinically meaningful entry point to preventive imaging

Common Questions
Yes — both use the same 3T scanner, the same radiologist expertise, and the same protocol quality. The difference is scope: the Torso MRI focuses on the chest, abdomen, and pelvis, while the Whole Body adds the brain, spine, and musculoskeletal assessment.
Yes. If your Torso MRI identifies findings warranting a more comprehensive assessment, or you simply wish to expand your screening scope, you can book a Whole Body MRI at any time. Previous scan images are retained for comparison.
