Why Get a Second Opinion on a Spine MRI?
Interpreting a spine MRI can be complex. Imaging findings in the cervical, thoracic, or lumbar spine often include technical terminology that may be difficult to fully understand without specialist radiology context.
“The report mentions disc bulge or herniation.”
Spine MRI reports frequently reference terms such as disc bulge, disc protrusion, or herniation. These findings are common and may be age‑related or incidental, and their clinical relevance often depends on detailed imaging interpretation and correlation.
“Degenerative changes are noted, but severity is unclear.”
Phrases like degenerative disc disease, facet arthropathy, mild to moderate stenosis, or spondylosis are commonly used in spine MRI reports, yet may not clearly explain their significance or whether they relate to current symptoms.
“I’m unsure how the MRI findings relate to my pain.”
Spine MRI reports often include statements such as clinical correlation recommended, incidental finding, or findings of uncertain significance, which can leave patients uncertain about whether the MRI explains back or neck symptoms or if further clarification is needed.
In many cases, the challenge is not the spine MRI finding itself, but the uncertainty around its interpretation. An independent spine MRI second opinion can help clarify imaging findings and report language before important clinical decisions are considered.

Should I Get a Second Opinion on My Spine MRI?
Spine MRI findings are not always straightforward. When symptoms persist or important decisions are involved, an independent second opinion may help clarify imaging findings and reduce uncertainty.
- Your symptoms do not clearly match the MRI report. Ongoing back or neck pain may not always correlate with the described findings.
- You were advised to consider spine surgery. Many patients seek confirmation of MRI findings before making surgical decisions.
- The report mentions disc bulge, stenosis, or degenerative changes. These findings can
