EPISODE: MR Neurography
Magnetic Resonance Neurography
is a ground-breaking new development in medical imaging.
Invented by Dr. Aaron Filler, MR Neurography employs
standard MRI machines outfitted with patented "pulse
sequences," allowing physicians and surgeons
to "see" nerves inside the human body -
something that was impossible just a few years before.
As Dr. Aaron Filler, MD, PhD and chief of clinical
services for the Neurography Institute explains,
the power of MR Neurography means better and more
accurate medical scans for issues affecting the nerves
and spine -- resulting in more accurate diagnoses
and treatments for patients suffering from spine
and nerve pain.
