Advice & Tips
I like MRI scans even though I find them useless accept for diagnosis. I have MRI of the brain neck and spine every year, and enjoy looking at the images. There purpose to me is just to know whats going on. No MRI will convince me to start a treatment though. Only a major ongoing change in my MS symptoms would change my mind at this pont.

nothing to worry about unless you maybe clostfobric, but will show any and all lesions due to the ms, it only takes about 45 minutes in the mri machine itself.

Advice & Tips
If you are claustraphobic, ask for an "open-air" MRI. Otherwise, the MRI machines are like tubes. A typical MRI is fairly expensive...so shop around because some centers are less expensive. However, most insurance companies cover an MRI as a diagnostic procedure in determining the location of and/or further progression of plaques/lesions in the brain and spine.

Advice & Tips
MRIs are very expensive so if you need one, make sure your insurance covers it.
