A member asked:
Why could they have thought they saw something in first brain mri then the one with contrast came back clear?

Likely Artifact: Because of the nature of the MRI and averaging the water content in the cuts, it is very sensitive and can lead to artifacts, that is why multiple views and settings need to be performed.
