MRI report, is it a diagnosis?

Usually the findings/impressions just say what the radiologist sees.  For example, in a chest x-ray, it might say "a smooth, rounded, 2 cm density in the right upper lobe."  Well, that can describe many different processes.  Sometimes, the radiologist will give a differential diagnosis....ie:  "this could be due to X disease" or "Y disease can present this way." \n\nIt is up to the primary care physician to decide what process is causing this.  A MRI or CT scan or x-ray or ultrasound is just a part of a diagnosis of a disease/condition.

It's not hard to diagnose at all.  The symptoms are extreme fatigue,some people have  attacks (the most common type of MS)which can range from mild to severe (during an attack you may loose feeling in a part of your body, loose sight, hearing or not be able to talk, think or recognize people.) After the attack the symptoms usually go away anywhere from a couple of hours the weeks to clear up and sometimes damage remains.  Loss of memory is also a symptom of MS.  Numbness, tingling or pain in the body.  You should see a neurologist right away MS can be diagnosed with an MRI the MRI shows the lesions that are common in people with MS.  There are different type's of MS also some people don't have the attacks but get progressively worst over time.  There is no cure for MS but there are good treatments that slow the progression and can lessen and even stop the attacks of MS...Go right away...Hope this helps

It could be any number of things.  Anyone who gives you a diagnosis over a computer is full of dung.  I'd talk to your family doctor first.  Are you taking any medications?  Doing any drugs?  I'd then talk to my school guidance counselor and see where they refered me.

It could be sciatica.  It occurs quite often and often goes undiagnosed for many years.  I recommend you get a doctor's opinion though as this is just my two cents.

It is a rapid clicking sound. MRIs are really easy on patients!

X-rays show skeletal problems, not muscle or nerve damage. See a neurologist

There are few things in all of medicine that is more nebulous than back pain and spine imaging.  It's not uncommon for a very significant finding on an MRI to have little or no symptoms.  Conversely, an MRI showing very little or no detectable abnormality can still mean significant pain or symptoms.  The human spine is more than just a bunch of vertebrae stacked on top of each other.  It's a very complex biomechanical structure with multiple small joints of different types at all levels, stabilized by large numbers of ligaments and muscles.  Medical imaging will not display pathology of all these structures all the times.  Unfortunately, many people with back pain get treated with medicine, physical therapy and surgery with varying results.  Sometimes they get better, other times they don't, and other times they get worse.  My advice is to see a good orthopedic or neurosurgeon who isn't hell bent on operating on every spine patient they see.  Surgery should be a last resort, and you have to be absolutely certain that whatever is being operated correlates with the clinical symptoms.

many things can show up on an MRI...tumor is definately one of them, another is swelling (which can be caused by many things), bleeding is another, but that is unlikely at this point. Most likely it is a tumor. rapid growth does not necesarily mean that it is malignant (cancerous), benign (non-cancerous) tumors can grow as well. That is what a biopsy will tell the docs, and from there they will look at how possible a surgery is to remove it. First they may have to do radiation to shrink a tumor. but they will fill you in on that when they find out results. To make things easier to understnad when you get results of a biopsy ask if a nurse can be in the room, nurses usually can answer questions in people terms instead of doctor terms like docs do.

How was this diagnosed?  How do you know the diagnosis is correct.  And, if the diagnosis is correct, WHAT is CAUSING the bursitis?  If treatment is to be successful, it must be aimed at the cause.\n\nGood luck.

That would be the MRI, ma'am.

Yes, it is possible to have Multiple Sclerosis without lesions on an MRI. Other objective testing include spinal fluid examination for proteins commonly found in MS and Evoked Potentials of the eye(VER=Visual Evoked Response) and ear(BAER=Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response).

Usualy it does and no MRI is used to find tumors and scan the body for exotic things. There is no radiation when using the MRI Scan. MRP (correct scan name) is used to predict if u need chemotheraphy or not for ure cancer, and yes when they use this scan it means u have cancer.

Doesn't sound abnormal, but ask physician.

You don't feel very confident in the diagnosis by doctors who have seen you and the MRI, but you are going to be ok with answers here?????\n\nPlease get another Dr's opinion, but don't trust your brain to Yahoo.

Hey, getting an MRI is appropriate...then again the doctor may have to be able to read it correctly. I did have an MRI, one doctor said that I needed surgery, another told me that I need not. So I decided to be conservative and did physiotherapy, wore a brace for sports and it took me almost a year to recover fully. Healing takes time...give it the time that it needs...and it will! God bless U.
