Frequently Asked Questions about MRI Great Toe
Q. What are the drawbacks of a bone X-ray?

Even the bone microfractures or complicated spine injuries are not clearly visible on the X Ray images.

Q. Who interprets the X-ray results?
The interpretation of an X-Ray image is carried out by a radiologist who analyses or reads the X-ray image and prepares a report of the findings which is shared with the patient.
