If cremaster muscle strain is causing pulling pain in groin an mri cannot detect.what else an mri cannot detect which might b causing groin pain?

MRI and : Most other imaging studies can only visualize, when they can, anatomical or physical problems. They usually cannot determine functional problems. For example, if there is scar tissue around a nerve which is causing pain, imaging usually cannot tell where these are.
