MRI feedback... timescale?

New diagnosis and before diagnosis
1

I know this is probably a bit like asking ‘how long is a piece of string’… but just after some guidance. I had a brain MRI on Tuesday, I couldn’t get out fast enough afterwards, and so didn’t ask about feedback timings… any idea please? I do recall neurologist said he’d write to me afterwards, but don’t think timescale was discussed. Thanks. (I’m in the UK, and was seen as a private referral).

Hi Curly1969, you will probably hear sooner if it was private appt. I had MRI beg aug, results weren’t back two weeks later, neuro was waiting on Radiologists report. Still waiting now so going ring secretary soon see if they are back. Heard can take anything from 2-8 weeks depending on hospital systems and backlog. Hope hear soon Jules

I had my MRI Saturday just gone on my head, neck and back with and without contrast. I’ve got to go and see my consultant next Tuesday to get the results.

Hi Curly1969 Hope you get your results soon. I rang consultant sec today, mine from beg aug are in a back log of 4-6 weeks! Can’t be seen again til they’ve been reported on. Bit much when waiting on diagnosis!! Our lovely NHS is creaking… Jules
