MRI of Breast with a port
Hi all
Recently my surgeon said ok to do MRI of breast just as a precaution.
When I called the center to see what to bring I mentioned the port and
they said no they cannot do MRI with a port in as it causes an artifact?
So no test for me now. Thanks for any input on this. Good week to all.
