A member asked:
Multiple sclerotic lesions in thoracic vertebrae , what determines if they should be biopsied?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thoracic vertebrae: I presume your doctor has ordered images of the the thoracic vertebrae and discussed the result with a Radiologist who did the study. The possibility of biopsies will be discussed with you. If the doctor and the radiologist both agree about what should or should not be done, please follow their advice. Hope all goes well - please let me know how things went.
