Wrist MRI After PRO DISC L5 S1 Placement
I have an odd question. I had a PRO DISC L placed at my L5 S1 area in May of 2014. Currently, my home physicians scheduled an MRI of my right wrist. Can I have an MRI of my right wrist? Logically, I cannot have an MRI of my back area, (Tin plate in a microwave , But can I even be in the room with an active MRI of my wrist?

In 2007 I was put in a bad situation that required Herculean physical abilities, thus I damaged the L5-S1 region area. My wife and I flew to Bogen Germany in May of 2014, where I had L5-S1 ADR Surgery performed by Doctor Bertagnoli. We were very impressed with Doctor Bertagnoli, the hospital and staff. |

You can get an MRI of your wrist without any problems. MRIs of your spine are possible but the Prodisc will obscure the area and make it hard to read anything near to where it's emplaced, but there's no reason why you should be forbidden to get the MRI
