Most patients prefer having a second set of eyes focusing on their healthcare.  According to a study, 88% of patients who sought a 2nd medical opinion for a complex condition received a refined or completely new diagnosis. 

The USA, UK, Indian and Australian trained Radiologists working under contract for Spine and Brain Advocate are committed to reviewing MRI imaging for Craniocervical Junction disorders, Spinal Cord abnormalities and more.  

For head and neck imaging, the Radiologist(s) will review your submitted head and neck MRI imaging and provide you with a detailed and comprehensive Radiology Report.  The Radiologist(s) will review and report on the following abnormalities: 

⋅  Craniocervical Abnormalities and Measurements such as ADI, CXA, BAI, BDI and Powers Ratio

⋅  Chiari Malformation

⋅  Brainstem Abnormalities

⋅  Hydrocephalus

⋅  Tonsillar Herniation

⋅  Vascular abnormalities

⋅  Ligamental injuries with grading

⋅  Odontoid Malformations

⋅  Congenital Malformations

⋅  Degeneration Disease

⋅  Facet Joint Abnormalities

⋅  Intracranial Hypertension

⋅  Tumors and Tarlov Cysts

⋅  Styloid Process Abnormalities

⋅  CSF abnormalities

⋅  Vertebral Misalignment and Rotation

⋅  Head Injuries

⋅  and more

2 ACTUAL REPORT (SAMPLES) – MRI CERVICAL SPINE

 

 

Any other imaging such as thoracic, lumbar or brain imaging etc. can also be submitted and the Radiologist(s) will provide a detailed and comprehensive report.  

Historically, the USA, UK, Indian and Australian trained Radiologists used by Spine and Brain Advocate have provided more than double the amount of details and approximately 75% of the time have found new information to help Doctors make an accurate diagnosis.

Even if the 2nd Radiology opinion verifies the initial diagnosis, patients may feel more comfortable knowing that their health is being properly assessed. This is an extra level of reassurance that may put patients fears at ease and will allow for the best treatment plans to be developed.

Obtaining Multiple Medical Opinions is the most effective way to decrease medical error rates. CCJ Disorders are a complex disease.  For a peace of mind, verify your diagnosis or get more details about the original diagnosis through a 2nd medical opinion.

Teams of US, UK, Indian and Australian trained Radiologists are utilized by Spine and Brain Advocate in remote 2nd Radiology Opinions. 

The dedicated Radiologists working for clients that purchase a 2nd Radiology Opinion have internationally accreditation and over 8 years of experience in their field.  They can help you understand what your medical issues are with great breadth and depth. 

Why obtain a 2nd Radiology Opinion?  Multifaceted Healthcare for CCJ Disorders is required because it’s a complex disease.  The craniocervical junction (CCJ) represents a complex area between the cranium (head) and the upper cervical spine (C1-C2 vertebrae).  It contains vital nerve and vascular (i.e. blood vessels) structures and the spinal cord. That’s very complicated and critical to a person’s health and well-being!

A combination of ligament and bone structure allows for stability despite a large degree of motion.  The CCJ movement brings flexion, extension, rotation, oblique and other motions.

When the CCJ’s structure becomes wobbly, due to ligament damage or a bone fracture or break, the nerve and vascular structures and the spinal cord are compressed at and around the point of injury. This is called craniocervical instability (CCI) and it can cause obstructions and abnormal blood flow, nerve conduction, and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) flow.  A MRI or CT Flexion / Extension/ Rotation 2nd Radiology Opinion is an excellent investigative approach to determining quantifiable craniocervical junction abnormalities.
