    Are too many mri scans bad?

    Are too many mri scans bad for you?
    I had a head/brain mri 1 month ago and I need to get another one. Is too much mri scans bad for you? Especially only after just 1 month? I read too many ct scans are bad, but what about mri scans?

    I know X-Rays ain't too great but MRI? Unless you've got bones of iron I think you're ok.

    I think as long as its not over done. I had 2 mris last year a month apart. I unfortunately had lesions on my brain, spine. I was diagnosed with MS. I have to get a MRI yearly. I think it would take alot of visits.
