A member asked:
How necessary is it to take a mri when x ray has been done to see reverse lordosis & possible herniated disc in cervical spine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Different tests: Plain X-rays of the spine only show bones structure, an MRI is needed if you are looking for soft tissue pathology like a herniated disk.
