I'm glad you got that settled. Also, glad your neuro actually looks at the MRI films for himself. That's cool.

:cool:

My last MRI report seemed like it had just been copied from the one before, so I asked my neuro to look at both of them and give me his take on it.

He seemed a little miffed - like he was pressed for time, and I was being **** or something.
:p

I explained; "I trust YOUR judgement over whoever read this. Or else, why would I be here?"

He looked them over and I thanked him. And he got it, that I respected his opinion more than someone I've never seen. Seems we've had a better Dr/pt relationship since then.

I do feel better knowing my doc is looking at my test results, not just relying on someone else's word.

Radiology Films
 

CDs on diagnostic tests can't be read on a personal PC---you're lucky you were able to. The CDs being used is called dicom disk which is only used for diagnostic (instead of films) and they are specifically made to be compatible with a specific software that the health industry uses nowadays just for the purpose of viewing the diagnostic pictures.

My MRI CD has the dicom format, but it also had a dicom viewer and I was able to view the pics on my home PC.

Thank you holly, both the disc I have can also be viewed along with one on my back, I have gazed at the brain MRI's errie looking
