Anyone ever heard of this?

 I had my first 6 month followup today at the scan center.   Got the disk, went home and noticed it says "partial"MRI on the disk label.  Last one I had before my surgery  didn't say that. By the time I got home Dr office was closed to ask about it. Did a quick Google search and don't see anything about a partial MRI. Still don't have results, hopefully really soon because I definitely shades of scan anxiety and the wait is going to make me nuts ;)

    You had a partial, correct?

    I think it's referring to the fact that the MRI is of the partial neph you had.

    Keep us posted huh?

    Deep breaths and hugs,

    Scar Tissue

    Yay on no issues on the report! My scan showed some "scar tissue/ nodularities notation as well at the incision site. Must be par for the course because my surgeon did not even mention it.
