    I heard on the radio the MRI is at noon today. MRI's usually take 30 minutes to 1 hour. So, I would say 1:00PM at the earliest but maybe the radio was wrong.

    The MRI they did on my kidney like a month ago took almost an hour because they were idiots. For just a foot (and since he doesn't need to hold his breath for it) it shouldn't take more than 30 minutes max, imo.

    I hated using a enclosed MRI machine. It was only for my knee but I just don't like it. I'm not sure I could have a closed MRI on my whole body. I have had a open MRI before and it was a lot better.

    I doubt we'll hear any results on it until tomorrow. The doctors have to analyze the images and that may take some time.

    Not really they can look and decide in a few minutes most of the time.

    I hope your right. It's been more than 10 years since I had one and it took a while back then.

    Really. I think if its Greg Oden, they look at the images as they render.

    If Kevin Pritchard and Paul Allen were looking over your doctor's shoulder (and paid accordingly!), you'd have gotten results the same day too.

    (My wife and I had this exact conversation a few minutes ago, and that was the final words!)

    I had a MRI a month a ago and had three different doctor's look at the MRI and it only took each one a few minutes. I guess if it is really at lot to look at it might take a little longer but I wouldn't think any longer then one hour probably less. I'm sure they are having a couple different specialists look at the MRI.

    My guess is we'll have a response by 2PM or so.

    Personally, I don't want to hear the results . . .

    It's been non-stop disappointment ever since we have drafted him . . . I can't help but to expect bad news.

    Hopefully it's just a sprain... looks like one of those ankle turns that just happens.

    You all know that if it weren't for him being out last year, that we really wouldn't even be talking about this. It would be more like "Oh well Gregs out for a few days."
