MRI 결과는 혼란스러울 수 있습니다. 테네시 주 정형외과 전문의가 일반적인 소견의 의미와 이용 가능한 치료 옵션에 대해 설명합니다.
Receiving MRI results can be overwhelming, especially when they contain unfamiliar medical terminology. Our Tennessee orthopedic specialists take time to explain your results in plain language and discuss what they mean for your treatment.
Disc bulge, disc herniation, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, and bone marrow edema are among the most common findings on spine MRIs. Many of these findings are normal age-related changes and don't always require treatment.
An MRI finding is significant when it correlates with your symptoms. A herniated disc on MRI that matches the location of your nerve pain is more relevant than one that doesn't cause symptoms.
Based on your MRI results and clinical examination, your specialist will recommend a treatment plan ranging from conservative care to surgical intervention. Always discuss your results in the context of your symptoms and examination findings.
