@gangcarotid1 Thanks and sorry for long delay in reply. That's encouraging to learn about the gold crowns. I have three in back of my mouth from late 80s early 90s. But I also have a few the same age that are porcelain bound to steel of some kind. Did you actually have an MRI or were you just relaying what the radiologist said?

I actually had MRIs. Day 1 I had MRI of my brain where they'd previously seen on the edge of a neck MRI something suspicious on my inner table skull, with and without contrast. Day 2, I had MRI of my neck where they'd removed
the tumor from my carotid artery, with and without contrast. Additionally, Day 3 I had CT scans with and without contrast, on my chest, abdomen, pelvis. All went fine.
My Mayo surgeons actually put notes in the surgical after-surgery notes about the clips they'd used in both surgeries, as well as the coil they used to reroute blood flow away from the carotid tumor, explaining it was a safe variety for MRIs & CTs.
