MRI scans of the knee are highly accurate for diagnosing various conditions, including tears of ligaments, menisci, and cartilage, as well as identifying bone abnormalities and soft tissue injuries. Sensitivity and specificity can exceed 90% for certain injuries, making MRI a valuable tool in orthopedic assessments. However, the accuracy can be influenced by factors such as the quality of the MRI equipment, the experience of the radiologist, and the specific condition being evaluated. Overall, while MRI is a reliable diagnostic tool, clinical correlation and additional imaging may sometimes be necessary for a comprehensive evaluation.
A CT Scan can image an aneurysm without a contrast injection even though it does better with a contrast agent. An MRI will require an contrast agent or an MRI/MRA.
A CT scan is about $300 to $6750, while a MRI scan is $400 to $12,000.

No. It is not a treatment it is a scan. An MRI is a Magnetic Resonance Imaging. MRI are used for imaging tissues.
based on frequency of symptoms and confirmed by x rays of the knee. The CMP erosion can also be seen on an MRI, although this type of scan is not routinely performed for this purpose.
Yes
An MRI can be a way of diagnosing a person with epilepsy, but does not have any effect on epilepsy. It is just used to scan the brain.An MRI can be a way of diagnosing a person with epilepsy, but does not have any effect on epilepsy.

Mri of the body... Or a cat scan of the head

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.
