Avatar m tn MRI study of the left hip joint S/O Transient osteoporosis as detailed with small reactive joint effusion and synovitis. For clinical/ lab correlation and follow up in 3-6 months.
Avatar f tn She then sent me for an MRI and an appt with an orthopedist. The MRI showed fluid around the right hip. The ortho said that my symptoms would not be caused by that and scheduled a 3 phase bone scan. Those results showed some activity in that area along with minor osteoarthritis I do not need a hip replacement so I am left with pain that is idiopathic. I am wondering if it is muscular because when I lift my right leg, or turn over at night, I cannot straighten my right leg.
Avatar n tn I have been advised by my GP that I will need an MRI scan, I will keep you updated on the results, in respect of my age I am 58, but I expect that there is wear and tear on the right hip. But as i have recently had a gastric by pass I am concerned that the body is not absorbing calcium correctly which may agrivate the situation. However, I appriciate the time you took to answer my question.
450140 tn?1317947304 I called for the results of my MRI and they said no changes in brain scan since last time. My doc had them do MRI and xrays of my left hip. Both are showing deenerative changes. Seriously, I can barely walk!! Anyone have any input on this.......... I know from older scans, that I have a bad disc in my neck and in my back. No injuries, so does this have anything to do with MS, or is it totally a seperate issue? My doc is on vacation, or I would have spoke to him about it.

Avatar m tn I have been suffering from chronic hip pain for about 8 months. I had THR surgery of my right hip on 1-15-08. I seemed to be recovering at a normal pace until December of 2008. I started experiencing pain in the soft tissue of my right hip. I returned to my orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis. Xrays confirmed the hip was good, to be sure a bone scan was ordered, it also showed that everything appeared normal.
Avatar n tn My questions/concerns are, do I just accept that the x-ray film had a smudge, and that the MRI supersedes the results of the x-ray. Do I get a second opinion? Do I get from a general practice doctor, radiologist or an orthopedic? My shoulder and my left hip are still causing me pain, should I request an x-ray of my left hip as well? Could the bone bruise be the lesion that showed up on the x-ray? I was told the two were not related.
Avatar f tn I have had a transvaginal scan, a sigmoidoscopy, a kidney scan, a chest xray, a xray of pelvis spine and left hip. And a mri of pelvis, spine and left hip. The only thing that has come to light is my lumber spine has a slight curve. I am now being sent for bone scans of hip, groin, spine and knee. I still have the left knee pain which the orphapedic said may need an operation see what the bone scans show up.
488264 tn?1226520307 The doctor who ordered the scan never mentioned this and I am not due to see them until after the scan. So my question is whether an MRI of the hips can show whether the cauda equina nerves are damaged or can it not view them? I am in severe pain in the pelvic, back and leg area. My doctor wanted to give me a steroid injection to relieve bursitis, but wanted to assess the MRI first. I am not entirely clear what they are looking for.
Avatar n tn I'm not sure where you are located, but in the US you have a right to the study and the results for your own records. There is really no suck thing as a non-specific lesion if you are having neurologic symptoms. At the very least, the doctor is expected to provide symptomatic treatment and hopefully relief while attempting to diagnose the root cause of the illness.
Avatar n tn Thanks for the info.. Your exactly right.. went to the doctor and was told it was sciatica. also had xrays done but don't have those results as yet. Probably my next step is also an MRI.. then will mention steriod shots to my doctor..
Avatar f tn there is evidence of a prior left temporal craniotomy. there is some encephalomalacia associated with the lateral aspect of left temporal lobe. gyriform T1-weighted hyperintensity is present in this area, comsistent with methemoglobin deposition. this would be compatible with prior traumatic and/or surgical injury. with respect to the temporomandibular joint, there is evidence of anterior dislocation of the disc, with relocation on mouth opening.
Avatar f tn I went to our local ER and had a cy scan of my head done. It says chiari malformation and noted the shrinkage of my ventricals around my brain. My regular dr. Sent me for MRI (which had to be a special one due to having rods, screws and a spinal stimulator implanted in low back). I got the report and it says chronic ischemia disease and a chiari malformation of 1 cm. they're making me go to the city to see a Nuero surgeon. Someone please tell me if I should be concerned?
Avatar f tn I feel like I lean to the right and cannot walk without limping. MRI of hip shows benign appearing single cyst about 8mm in size of the the femoral head, no evidence of labral tear, fracture and no specific findings of avascular nevrosis, recommend bone scan. Wondering what the cause of the cyst might be and could it have been there for years without detection? What can be done to relieve the pain?
Avatar f tn The pain has gotten worse and is now along left side of neck, under left shoulder blade and through my hip. Sometimes my chest hurts between breasts and down left rib cage. Had lots of blood work, ct scan, endoscopy, colonoscopy and everything is normal. Waiting for MRI results to come back. The pain is constant and is causing anxiety attacks. Hoping to feel better soon for myself and so I can be a happy mom again. Any ideas on what is causing this would be appreciated.

Avatar m tn 3. Suggestion of cerebellar tonsillar ectopia. Attention to this area on brain MRI is suggested in the clinical context of headaches.
Avatar f tn He has also undergone a MRI as well as a bone scan. All test have produced normal results yet the pain is only getting worse. He is on home bound schooling now and in a wheelchair so he can function. I know something is wrong cause he is a very active child (this pain is not the result of an injury). He is so unhappy and truly wants to go back to school and see his friends. Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong?
1131208 tn?1260207946 An MRI and a CAT scan showed a fracture of the subcortical something or other in the left hip an injury which occurred ten years ago on a ski trip. Osteoarthritis set in and after ten years has worn away all of the cartiledge and now it is "bone grinding on bone" a severely painful condition which limits my mobility and is ruining my life.
Avatar f tn Hi there, If you have had repeat MRI over an extended period of time on a T3 machine using MS Protocol and a lumbar puncture (MRI of your thoracic, cervical and brain the chances of it being MS would be diminished. MRI is pretty good at imaging the brain, but not so good at imaging the spinal cord. Usually a good neurologist can tell from examination and what symptoms you are having if your lesions are more likely to be spinal or brain.
Avatar m tn Your doctor must be sure that the SOL (space occupying lesion) is in fact a hemangioma and not a malignant tumor. Frequently follow up tests such as a MRI or CT scan are sometimes ordered to confirm the diagnosis. I wouldn't worry too much about this but i would make sure that your doctor is certain that the mass seen on ultrasound is indeed a hemangioma.
Avatar m tn or i now suspect it could be lower than i have been explaining it to everybody and maybe i am just getting some reffered pain,I have had a couple of sessions of phiso and when he hit this bruised feeling spot in my back it felt like both my shoulders were going to lock up if i did not sit up from a lieing position they would of,this is how the mri scanwas requested and the results have been looked at by a surgeon and i do not think he is to concerned by the results.
