does hyperintense means herniation dcis
"Rule out HNP" means check to see if there's a disk herniation in the neck.
Because magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides sharp, clear images of bones, discs, nerves, and soft tissues, it is the best test to show disc herniation and nerve compression.
(Addendum to question due to lack of space in title): Example -- A near fall and deep bruise to leg in a hospital recovery room shortly after a microdiscectomy for herniated disc, due to a defective arm on recliner chair (actually there were 2 incidents involving defective recliner chairs). Weeks later, MRI showed a re-herniation of the disc. Would the reherniation (injury) be considered intrinsic or extrinsic?
It is best to wait for the results of the MRI - they will then tell you what they have found.
It depends on what the problem with the elbow is. If it is a bone related injury then the CT scan will show more detail but if the problem is with the muscles or ligaments, then the MRI Scan will be more useful.
It depends on how badly your ankle is sprained.
It will probably be considered as aggravation of a pre-existing condition , unless you can produce an MRI with a significant change.
There is no way to tell without an MRI or autopsy.
