Can a Brain MRI always detect Multiple Sclerosis?
Question by Bubba: Can a Brain MRI always detect Multiple Sclerosis?
I have many symptoms related to multiple sclerosis, including: eye pain, blurry vision, dizziness, headaches, chronic pain (including facial pain), cognitive problems, chest pain when I wake up from sleep in the morning, fatigue, ear pain and pressure, etc.
I had a Brain MRI done two years ago, and the results came normal. I had a Head CT Scan done recently, and the results came normal.
Could it be possible that the MRI and the CT Scan had missed something?

An MRI will usually catch ms if it’s there.
“…detected by MRI in more than 90% of people suspected of having MS.”
“However, 5% of people with MS do not have abnormalities detected on MRI, thus a “negative” scan does not completely rule out MS. “
