2018-02-23 06:29:01
Hello Sir, You have operated my jaw in 2009 in Lokmanya Hospital Nigdi and inserted plate in it. Now a neurosergeon advised me a MRI for my back pain. Can I do MRI scan? Can it be fatal because of plate in my jaw at the time of MRI scan? I am waiting for your reply. Thanks and Regards, Vishal Jadhav.
