Understanding MRI: MS

I have been attending MS programs for years trying to educate myself and my family about MS. One of the hardest things for me to really understand has been the MRI. Why does my Doctor do them? What do they mean? Why are they different shades, etc. the problem was that I could listen to some expert at a program but not have something to take home and refer to when I really needed it. Thank you for this app! It not only answers all the questions that I have, but it is something I can keep with me, discuss with my Doctor when I see my MRI, and help others with that are just like me. I love the app and can't wait for more tools like this! Thank you! - William

MRI is the most important, and yet the most confusing tool, in the fight against your MS. This app is the best resource I've ever seen for explaining what to expect and what to look for in the imaging process! It provides visual examples, clear explanations, and helpful tips, all designed to help you get the most out of your MRI experience each and every time. And what other app provides an Ask The Expert section where you can send in questions and ideas to be addressed by an MS expert?! This app is truly a game changer, I only wish it had been around when I started this MS journey!

Whether newly diagnosed or a long way down your MRI journey this tool not only helps to understand MRIs in a way “real people” can understand them, but debunks some misconceptions I had. There isn’t always time when my doctor’s in the room or I think of a question later, and this tool has been a great reference. Helpful not only for me but for my support team! -Chris

This app has taught me so much about MRIs and the usefulness of them for diagnosing MS. Prior to downloading the app, I did not completely comprehend everything that goes into accessing whether someone has multiple sclerosis. However, after throughly exploring it, I have a better understanding of MRIs and how to read my own.

Haven't seen an app even close to this for MS patients and their family. MRI's can be very intimidating for patients and this can be very helpful in educating them on what to expect and questions to ask. The Topics section focusing on "MRI and Multiple Sclerosis" and "MRI and MS Symptoms" is well laid out, easy to follow and full of great information!
