Hi Aussie,
Pls understand that I know nothing about radiology. But I love DEXA scans, as they reveal a great deal of information about bone health. They are usually decisive in terms of supporting or contra-indicating disc replacement.
I try to help patients clarify their next steps, working towards complete wellness. My bias is helping the patient find a doctor they trust. I spend inordinate amounts of time focusing on the origin of DDD, which most patients and doctors ignore: pathogens like bugs.
That said, pls clarify and embellish here...dunno what you mean by this statement:
One Surgeon who reviewed this scan disagreed with the written report and after going off the source document said it should have read C5-6?
Any more news since then would help. How are you feeling these days?
