can an mri be done on shoulder and back.
The MRI can find changes in the spine and in other tissues. It also can find problems such as infection or a tumor. MRI can look at the spine in the neck (cervical), upper back (thoracic), or lower back (lumbosacral). The entire spine can be seen in one series of pictures to find a tumor. More detailed pictures of one area, such as the lumbar spine, may be taken.
MRI shoulder coil to obtain scout image (MRI of the Shoulder, 2003). â¢Scout images obtained in coronal plane to serve as localizer for subsequent pulse sequencesâ¢Coil improves spatial resolution via higher signal:noise.
