If you recently got an MRI and then looked at the MRI report, it may seem like a bunch of gibberish.
What you really want to see is a picture of the actual injury.
So you do the most reasonable thing...you try to look at the actual MRI images to see if you can see the stuff mentioned in the report.
You put your MRI disc in your computer, or you go on an online viewing portal and you pull up your MRI images to try to make sense of it.
You're trying to figure out if it really picked up your injury or not.
