How long does a doctor need to look at mri results?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
MRI: Varies, but a radiologist may only need a few minutes to thoroughly review a mri. Of course that does not factor in how long it will take for you to get the results back...

Variable: Mr examinations involve obtaining many images either of brain or body. The amount of information to be examined in detail is tremendous compared to a radiograph. In order to be accurate the reading of these studies is time consuming. Once the examination is read the report is usually generated very promptly to clinician, same day. The number of studies needed to be read often determines throughput.
