A member asked:
What test would be the best to pick up scar tissue all around scapular area...mri? should it be done with contrast?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
MRI: MRI definitely gives you a better picture of the sift tissues and any disruption/abnormality. Unless you are concerned about vascular compromise of some type, you should not really need contrast. However, if pain occurs in certain positions that could indicate vascular compression or compromise, then getting it with contrast to see if everything is okay would be the way to go.
