9/13/23 would a head x-ray show a skull fracture and the plate and screws used to fix it 18 years ago? do skull bones grow back together? with a plate and screws in your skull, is it more dangerous to have a head x-ray, head ct or head mri?

Accepted Answer

: An xray would show a healed skull fracture and the plate and screws, if they were not ever removed. Fractured skull bones can heal and grow back together, With a plate and screws, it is safe to have a regular xray and also a CT but the CT can have pictures that are distored because of the plate and screws. It possibly could be a problem with an MRI but that would be decided by the radiologist.
