A member asked:
I recently had mri w contrast for check up after surgical removal of ear disease. no reoccurrence tho t2 shine through. should i seek further info?

Could be fluid: Fluid is bright on t2 MRI sequences and may give whats called t2 shine through on the dwi sequence, which is basically an artifact caused by the presence of fluid. The fluid could be an expected post surgical finding. I would be comforted by the fact that there was no recurrence.
