MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging,)
An MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses a powerful magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the body’s internal structures. At our clinic, we will use an MRI to capture images of the affected area to identify the source of your pain and assess the condition of your spine.
