A member asked:
Can you tell a tethered chord when radiologists have not diagnosed it, is one recent mri being the only one that is showing a tethered chord enough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A tethered cord: on MRI is unlikely to be confused with anything else. MRI is the imaging modality of choice to diagnose tethered cord.
