Think of the MRI as another way to get a picture of what’s going on inside the body. It’s not an X-Ray or CT scan, but another picture of body parts. My neurologist had me take a number of MRI’s, including one of my brain.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic procedure that uses a combination of a large magnet, radiofrequencies, and a computer to produce detailed images of organs and structures within the body.

The result?

I have a brain.

That news that I have a brain may surprise those who know me but the MRI showed nothing out of the ordinary other than “less than age expected atrophy.”

I’m not sure what was expected, but I take it to mean a good brain.
