Summary
This trial uses Virtual Reality (VR) to help children feel less anxious about MRI scans. By simulating the procedure beforehand, children become more comfortable and can stay still, leading to better image quality. VR has been shown to reduce anxiety in children during various medical procedures.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: VR RandomizationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The virtual reality MRI training will be conducted immediately after completion of the questionnaires in a distraction free room. The training explains the procedure to the viewer and addresses common questions that individuals often have regarding an MRI. Using audio/visual cues and biofeedback training is aimed to mimic the experience of the MRI with real audio recordings of image acquisition, in order to adequately train the view to stay still in an MRI procedure. The research subject will continue with their regularly scheduled MRI. The modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS) is an observational measure and will be completed by research staff.
Group II: Standard of Care (No VR) RandomizationActive Control1 Intervention
Participants would take the same questionnaires as the VR interventional group except the RT questionnaire. Then they will proceed with their MRI.
