MRIs and CtScans neither prove or disprove PCS.

Memory loss/amnesia can not be detected by MRI. There are neuropsychological tests (not scans) that check for problems with memory and other cognitive functions.

It is normal for symptoms to develop and/or increase days or weeks after initial concussion.
