Contrast dye for yearly MRI scan?

Hi all, I have a question about the contrast dye used in MRIs. If I'm having a yearly MRI and there were no new lesions or symptoms last year, how important is it that they use the contrast dye? I really truly hate having a canella put in and I'm not very keen on the stuff they are actually injecting either. How much more information will it really provide?
