How long would an MRI take for a child?

My son needs an MRI for his head at the end of this week, and he's nervous for it. How long does an MRI usually take if it's for the head?

It can vary depending on what they are looking for, probably 30-60 minutes. He may need sedation depending on his age and ability to lie still.
45 minutes.
