Title: Gamma Knife MRI update
Post by: rupert on February 01, 2011, 08:44:50 pm

   Hello everyone,     It seems that there are a lot of  MRI  updates lately so I'll add mine to the mix.   I had my one year follow up MRI yesterday.  I think I
was supposed to have one at six months.  I wasn't having any symptomatic problems so I blew it off.   Anyway here are the results.
    MRI - one year out.   Gamma Knife on 2/10/10   UPMC.  Size  was the same as before treatment minus 1 mm  all the way around,  so I consider it the same.
They gave me the disk on the way out so I of course looked at it and compared with my previous MRI's from before treatment.  Looks to me like about 25%
darkening (my opinion).   So,   off the disk and report go and we'll see what the Neurosurgeon thinks.   Me thinks I'm good for another year!   Bryan.
