I had a MRI done of my liver today (ordered by hematologist for some reason). I'm reviewing the CD images. lol.

I have no experience interpreting MRI scans. Gael, you have to stop talking about parasites. I'm imagining I'm seeing worms in my liver scan as I go through them and see odd shaped stuff. [Smile]

But seek, they probably are liver flukes. I read somewhere not too long ago, that a major hospital is learning how to identify parasites from scans.

If I can remember where it was, I will post it. It's just unfortunate that doctors are not versed in parasitology.

You are much more awake and aware than you think you are, so trust your intuition. [Cool]

Lots of marks show up in an MRI. Wait for the doctor to analyze. It will do your nerves good.

No worms reported. [Smile]

All is normal except for some weird incidental finding of a retroaortic left renal vein. The radiologist didn't seem to care much about it. Wheww... Now I know why I'm not a radiologist as I see worms where they are not. lol.
