My neuro ordered gad for brain and C spine, not for T spine. But the tech called the neuro and asked to add gad. Pulled me out after the no gad shots were done, had me hold still and gave me the dye.

Don't get upset if that does happen. You're there to find out, right? Better to know than go home without answers.

The tech in my case saw something, but it did not show without dye - with, you can see a cyst in my spinal cord. Syringomyelia. I'd rather know.
