“I have no idea
Unless you're suffering from Alzheimer's, dementia, or are psychotic, there's no way in the world you'd undergo an MRI without knowing exactly why.
As I was going through Doctor's examinations prior to my cancer surgery a few years ago, a Doctor looking at a screen said, "You've had a stroke."
"I haven't had a stroke," I responded.
"You had an MRI" Me: I don't remember an MRI. Turned out an MRI from 30-40 years ago was showing up on the screen. I was mystified.
Two days later I remembered the MRI and what they were doing was ruling out that I had a stroke 30-40 years ago. So that's a possibility.
I'm still amazed that the hospital system in SoCal kept MRIs from 30-40 years ago.
