MRI : Mri is a study that evaluates the anatomy of the body. Referring do a disc, I am assuming a herniated disc. If the disc has repaired and is no longer herniated, this will show one follow-up mri. If i can be of further assistance, please don't hesitate. Dr khoury. Usradreview.Com mkhoury@usradreview.Com.

Herniated Disc: If a herniated disc is present, it should show up on MRI. Sometimes the herniated disc fragment can get re absorbed by the body, in which case there may be no trace of it left on MRI
