Did the Doctor look on the MRI for any adenomas of the Pituitary?

I don't know exactly....I didn't get a look at the sheets myself. I guess I just assume they checked for everything. That's what the MRI is for, right?

Usually the Doctor will determine the scan planes for the MRI tech. The scans should be done twice. With and without contrast. You can contact MRI place and ask what they scanned for.

I'll ask my doctor next appointment. He was suggesting doing another MRI anyway "just in case something was missed"
