This follow-up is included in the cost of the procedure. If the patient needs to return to the Center prior to completing their post-procedural recovery, this is also covered by the cost of the procedure.
While not mandatory, every patient is encouraged to return for a 3-month post-procedure follow-up MRI and office consultation. The cost of this is similar to the cost of the original consultation with a small increase in the cost of the intravenous contrast used on the follow-up MRI which is not used on the initial scan.
