Looks like they are gathering more info on MRI vs. MBI

Something to watch for - MBI uses a radioactive tracer so you’d want to limit how often you have one.
Also, this article says it’s less expensive than MRI. Insurance companies are sure to jump on that. Self advocating is important - sometimes you may really need a MBI other times it might be better to limit the radioactive tracer.

Interesting - I wonder if you can have this type of imaging if you have had a DXM - I will ask at my next review.
