Thank God for that equipment. A friend of mine had a scan 2 weeks ago and they found something that would have killed him.

Of course people use tools that they have, and sometimes it can be questioned when nothing is found, but then there are the times that they do find something and it saves a life. Who decides if your life should be gambled with or not? The patient can say no but in most cases approves it...the patient is not willing to risk his life...

But people only go to specialists because they have a problem that needs addressing. Doctors aren't dragging in people with no problems and giving them mri's just to pad profits.

Here's the truth - you know socialist health care means a lot fewer mri's so you are anti-mri and want to make sure Americans are denied most mri scans. You want our health care eroded in the name of socialism.
