Yes: Mri can give function. It all depends how it was done.

MRI: You should discuss this question with the physician who ordered the study and what information he expected from the study. I think most people reporting these studies report all the useful information which is seen/measured in the study but sometimes if specific information is requested, the report may be limited to that.
