A member asked:
What does "mri neck spine w/o dye" image or cover? does above image or look for c5/c6 disc herniation?if it does, is mri dye used for better accuracy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
MRI: Mri of the neck/cervical spine examines the entire cervical spine and will detect abnormalities at c5-c6. Contrast is used to detect infection, tumor or prior cervical spine surgery, but is no more accurate for a bulging disc.
