That's so true about the 3T machine. I've only had 3T MRI's. I have many lesions although I suspect most are from a long history of migraines. Anyway, when I was diagnosed last July after developing double vision, every neuro I saw freaked out when they saw my MRI. They acted like I would be in a wheelchair within one month if I did not start REBIF ASAP. Anyway, I started the Rebif two months later and I have only been on 1/2 dose due to a decreased white count. July 15 will be a year and I have no symptoms and have had no relapses and my new MRI showed no change. Anyway, I seriously doubt any of this is from the 1/2 dose of Rebif!! Now if I only had the guts to stop the Rebif!!

I say if you slide anyone into a 2T machine, and created a treatment plan of ANY meds, then a year later used a 3T machine, you ARE going to see more lesions! its like using a stronger magnifying glass to look at a painting.

I am sorry you have a new lesion. That stinks. Hugs and prayers from me.
