MRI Report is Back

Hi,

I had an MRI report conducted on me on Friday.

The assistant just called to tell me that 'apart from mandibular (something) there are no other abnormalities'

So does this mean it is clear? also if there was cancer surely it would have spread so they would have been able to see the spread on MRI if i am correct?

Also, how accurate is an MRI in diagnosing Head and Neck cancer?

I will be seeing the DR in person to discuss results tomorrow

Did you have an injection of contrast, such as gadolinium, towards the end of the MRI?

And was the mandibular thing a temporomandibular joint issue?

Hi,

Yes i did have the dye put in.

The mandibular thingn is just a bony growth on the bottom of my mouth.

I have showed it to a dentist too.

The dye is designed to highlight any cancer and make it easily visible on the MRI. If nothing showed up then that's a very good indication that there's nothing to find.

Sorry, I know nothing about the bony growth so I can't say anything useful.
