Smile Diagnosing: MRI's
Hi everyone,

Can someone please tell me what's the story with using contrast in MRI's?

My first ever MRi in May was clear. They didn't use contrast. I'm due for another one in November.
Should contrast have been used in the 1st MRI?
Also, can the nuero request the slices to be thinner? I think I read somewhere that they can request 3mm instead of standard 5mm?

Thanks!
Michelle
