    Lumbar mri what will it show?

    I know there aren't any medical people here but if any forum users have had a lumbar mri do you know from personal experience ( not google) what it can show e.g. does it show any organs or just the spine , nerves etc.

    I think it just shows your lower spine as in your disc's and bones. I take it you're having one for lower back pain? I had one Feb 2017.

    Re: Lumbar mri what will it show?

    Can anyone help me with the answer please? When the dr sent me for lumbar mri she said it would show "everything". I took that literally but now im wondering if she just meant everything bone related? I still have pain and its over 2 months since the scan which didnt show anything significant. Maybe it doesnt show "everything" . I know i could google it but im really trying to stop doing that because it makes my anxiety worse. Does anyone know what it can detect? Please?
