Default What is the point of an MRI?
So I saw my doctor today and as someone here pointed out my CT scan came back completely normal.

I asked for an MRI and my doctor was not really keen on it saying it's expensive $450 but I insisted and got a referral for one, at least he wrote on it post concussion symptoms.

Anyway I always here of people getting them but I don't ever hear how it changes there treatment or prognosis, it's as though it's only for record keeping for research or whatever. My doctor said if anything shows up I could see a neurologist but what then?
