MRI scans - how to read??
Hi, I requested a copy of my MRI but I can’t remember what the neurologist pointed out as lesions and there are a lot of white patches on my brain on the scan so not sure if it’s all lesions or if it’s something else? How do you read them? Was also sent the report for it which is total gibberish too!
I read up on this a lot after my first MRI and basically you need a medical degree and specialist training as a neurologist to understand them, as it’s apparently quite possible for people without MS to have what looks like lesions. My neurologist was happy to bring it up on the screen and explain what I was looking at, so that might be worth a go.
I request my last mri and couldn't see what was what in the scan but I asked my neurologist on the last appointment to show me my lesions and that made sense!
