A member asked:

Non contrast mri was clear. no tumor or other issues found. should i request an mri with contrast or would the non contrast show issues?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Whi MRI in first pal: You need to tell us about your general condition as to why was the MRI done in the first place? Contrast is often used but it only enhances to show a lesion better. Most serious abnormalities will show up on MRI even without the use of contrast. Yet if your symptoms persist, a repeat MRI with Contrast may be necessary. What was your main symptom to do a MRI???
