hi people,

the doctor said she wants to do  a 'specific to ms mri which is done specifically for ms'.

what does that mean?  what type of mri is this? 

will it show a tumor if there is one or not?

    Honestly I was givin a referral for a MRI with contrast of brain. I don’t know of any specific MS MRI. With my MRI with contrast they found one lesion. If you have lesions or tumors they will show with a MRI
