Hey guys-
I'm an Interventional Pain Physician. I work rather closely with IR guys. We have 'conferences' and hash through some imaging,etc.
I however wanted to finese my ability to read MRIs a bit. Namely to recognize facet hypertrophy, bulging discs,etc both in the cervical spine and the Lumbar. Is there a good book that you can recommend....maybe 'something for dummies'. Or does your societies have a 'MRI reading workshop" that I could attend?
Also...finally about reading MRs prior to vertebral Augmentation. One of our Radiologists is mroe of a 'cowboy' and the other guys is more conservative. For excample, one of the guys will call it a compression fx, the other a 'compression deformity'....Any suggstions on how I could start to read my own MRIs in regards to edema on T2s so that I could ask the right questions,etc. Thanks!
