Pars defect/spondylolysis showed up on x-ray but "not comfirmed" on mri, what does this mean?

MRI not best: Mri not best test for spondylysis best is ct scan with saggital reconstructions even if you found one it dosent mean it is necessarily symptomatic many cause no pain or symptoms for this finding i would trust oblique xrays over MRI for your anatomical truth.
