This is an incredible video, I absolutely love the format you are showing, it really helps explain so many details of a MRI of the brain that you just can't comprehend elsewhere! Thanks so much for this video and please definitely do more like this!!

@AaronBosterMD 3 года назад

Thank you for the encouraging feedback Loving Dale #StrongerTogether

@vickydittfield9822 3 года назад

Love your Upbeat teaching style, and your passion for your work!

@kimberlymayo9951 3 года назад

Just in time...off for a brain MRI and an EEG...very soon.

@meloneyparker 3 года назад

I love this format. Love. But, it reminds me of the deficiencies of my neurologists who just glossed over my MRI without explaining much.

@Petra44YT 3 года назад

Get a new neurologist! No-one needs doctors who gloss things over or don't explain a thing.

@tag7941 3 года назад

Can't agree more with you. It's a challenge finding good Neurologist.

@kelly-bo-belly 7 месяцев назад

YEP. Most Neuros don’t talk with us because they are pushing you through like cattle.

@candyduncan1261 3 года назад

I would like to see more videos like this..they say knowledge is power!!

@megd7593 3 года назад

Yes, very interested in videos like this! What I’d also like to know is how does a person with this type of scan present clinically? What are symptoms and/or deficits displayed? Thanks, Dr. B!

@Py16777216 2 года назад

It could be any of a number of neurological symptoms common or rare seen in MS, or the patient my have very few deficits at all, despite the high lesion burden though that is more rare.

@nk7925 3 года назад

How old was this patient and what age were they diagnosed? Also what type of MS?

@chrisc757 3 года назад

In my 10 years plus of reviewing my MRIs with my MS doctor I have never seen such a concise and methodical presentation, can’t wait to see your explanation of how MS affects the spine. Thank you for taking the time every week to prepare these video presentations.

@thebonefish 3 года назад

Thank you for this video. My doctors shy away from actually going into prognosis.

@willowtree9082 3 года назад

thebonefish, I agree doctors and specialists do shy away of going to deeply with their patients/clients, I find that very unnerving and invalidating,a good specialist like Aaron will educate and inform, empowering and empowerment of the patient/client can be very healing, truth/honesty/transparency is a beautiful healer also.

@georgenep1082 3 года назад

What areas/functions are affected by those lesions? What does life look like?

@KristapsKKK 3 года назад

This

@stephanieparkinson2597 3 года назад

I was also going to ask this, ?

@andreacatura3382 3 года назад

Super informative! Would love to see a video explaining the correlation between a brain scan and the patient’s symptoms and why scans are/are not A predictor of decline.

@daludiaries2977 3 года назад

I'm definitely interested. I'd like to see a brain that is not very affected but clearly has MS. ...also spots versus how it manifests in the person's physical abilities.

@HealthCoachSusan 3 года назад

You want to see mine, then.

@chucko4695 3 года назад

Good morning Dr. Boster. This was a great video. Thanks. Also would definitely like to see more videos like this.

@jjkouper5163 3 года назад

FYI - a good Neurologist won’t look at the report from the radiologist- Instead a great Neuro will look at the MRI him/herself 👍 Dr B is a great neuro 👍👍👍

@gabikynigou2523 Год назад

True, my neurologist just wants to see me MRI, the reports is complementary that helps anyway!!!😊

@maryblick944 3 года назад

Absolutely want more MRI examples and your analysis. It helps so much to spark questions when we go to our own docs. Thanks!!!

@judepamment1106 3 года назад

Thank u for teaching us Dr A 🌻💗💯love from Australia

@BBGunshack22 3 года назад

Keep the MRI stuff coming!!

@petmur2451 3 года назад

Very interesting It would be good to know what functions in the body these legions effect? Eg walking, sight, touch etc?

@AaronBosterMD 3 года назад

Great suggestion!

@ragub6 3 года назад

Thank you so much - Very Informative- On my first MRI in 2004, the technician said "Collect your CD in evening". I thought to myself, Lots of noise in MRI and he wants to give me a CD 🤣 - I was hilariously naive back then

@roberture5903 3 года назад

Thank you for doing this video Aaron, some of that MRI that you were showing looks similar to what I'm dealing with. I know that means my prognosis is not great to say the least but I'm going to keep fighting. I believe that being active my whole has kept me mobile up to this point and I can't give up. Thankyou for all that you do.

@lunchbox4293 3 года назад

Dr B! Like the new format, I've been doing biannual MRIs for over a decade. Very informative as always

@kenallensr9826 3 года назад

FANTASTIC New Format Dr. Boster! I am going to look at my MRIs again to better understand them. I, WE - the MS Community, APPRECIATE what you do for us!!!Please Keep On Keepin’ On!

@carolineblack8460 3 года назад

Love this format! I have my brain MRI in two days and meeting with my neurologist next week. Now I will be armed with lots of questions! Thank you so much!

@MiDestinyx3js 3 года назад

I was officially diagnosed with MS last week. I am so grateful that I came across your channel. You have answered so many of my questions and concerns without even knowing it. Very informative!! Thank you Doctor Boster. God bless you.

@maryhinze-joyce8966 3 месяца назад

I love content like this because it allows me to understand my MS as I have all of my MRIs since I was officially diagnosed and very few if any were explained to me in any detail beyond the report that is given along with the DVD. Thank you for breaking it down for us.

@ammmy21870 3 года назад

I have been seeing a wonderful doctor and I asked him on my last visit ( I am newly diagnosed ) “ In what area are my lesions?” He replied every lobe . And asked if I would like to see . I did not want to on that day but, I do now and I am thankful for videos like this! I follow you closely 🙌🏻 superb information! Thank You! Amy

@tag7941 3 года назад

Thank you! Really enjoying the new MRI videos. I see my new doctor at Duke Hospital this Friday. Looking fwd to seeing a specialist that can review the MRIs and actually explain things. Appreciate you taking the time to help folks with MS better understand what they're dealing with.

@BornAgainFarmGirl 3 года назад

Long overdue Doc , folks have needed this video for years , me included thank you . This scan looks very similar to my own after 25 years of MS .

@CypeltResortAustralia 3 года назад

This is really informative and important dialect to understand, for anyone with MS and their family. Thankyou from Perth Western Australia! Please share more of these 💕🇦🇺😍💪🏽

@bridgetgraham5829 3 года назад

Absolutely interested in more videos like this. It's always good to learn more about our brain structure and how to better understand our MRIs. Knowledge is power and I so appreciate you for sharing yours with us!!

@figlina 3 года назад

Thank you so much, this is so useful! Does this person have relapsing- remitting or progressive ms?

@CharityBecker 3 года назад

More of these, please! This was incredibly helpful in understanding MS lesions seen on the brain. I'd be interested in seeing an explanation on spinal cord lesions as well.

@AaronBosterMD 3 года назад

More to come!

@mohammedhossain6172 3 года назад

I lovee this video. Thank you so much for all that you do. Since I am newly diagnosed, I have a bunch of questions for my neuro. She merely responded with “your MRI looks fine”. Thank you so much for walking me through this experience virtually. Showing or Atleast pretending to show a little bit of compassion goes a long way.

@lilred00051 3 года назад

I really appreciate these types of videos. I have always loved science and health topics and was about to embark on a career change into nursing before becoming sidelined by M.S. I do think there are many of us who get through our diagnosis and disease by geeking out to the more technical aspects(some which are fascinating-just wish it wasn't us personally). Thanks again Dr. B. for helping us navigate through all this. Much appreciation from central PA!

@banhate12 3 года назад

Extremely helpful format! I really appreciate learning how to understand my imaging. Please continue to provide this type of content; and thank you for the amazing insight!

@NikkiSoFar 3 года назад

I think this is my favourite video of all, thank you! You are treating us like we are smart enough to understand all this, and we are! When I was in the process of being diagnosed I was fortunate to have my MRI reports and I used the internet to teach myself why the findings were significant. Love the information, more information is better. I'm not worried about knowing what's going on with me, I'm just concerned I don't know everything, and so I keep asking.

@areejalbataineh4634 3 года назад

Very interested in this format of videos. Thank you Dr. Boster!

@timburns9890 3 года назад

Love the format. It helps educate me to be better prepared when I'm reviewing my MRI with my doc.

@clintt5071 3 года назад

This is awesome Dr. Boster! You are the bee's knees!

@narutokun9127 3 года назад

Yes please keep sharing any information that will inform us Ms patients thank you so much they told me I had brain atrophy

@kimmiller1198 3 года назад

This has been a very informative video!!!! Thank you so much!!! It's great hearing, & seeing, these tests explained in plain terms. It takes the "scary" part out of the "unknown"! In other words, it is really nice to have a little bit of knowledge under your belt when you go in for these things. Thanks so much for all of your dedication to this channel for us!!!

@karmengia72 3 года назад

Great video Arron please give us more like this. It is great to learn about our brain. And thank you for all your knowledge! Always like to watch your videos -Gisele

@wildfiveoutdoors3892 3 года назад

@Elizabeth-xk1jf 3 года назад

Thank you! Excellent video and super helpful in understanding my own. I too would appreciate more videos like this.

@OddinaryOne 3 года назад

Yeah I’d very much like to see more videos like this one. Which program are you using?

@charlottekelley6913 3 года назад

Thank you so much!! This video is very helpful and informative!! After an MRI I get an "impression " done by, honestly not a clue. I had a neurologist that explained almost as well as you, she retired. I miss her!! I appreciate your videos as they help me with questions to ask my new neurologist. Please do more like this!

@stephanieparkinson2597 3 года назад

Amazing video I would love to see more like this thank you Aaron for sharing.

@hollycoleman2294 3 года назад

Loved this presentation. I’m always interested in new information. I think this helps us to become more informed patients with our own care. Thanks.

@staciephillips6211 3 года назад

I do so much also love this video & how you plan on showing more MRI in future videos. I can't say enough how important it is for me to know how to read these as I believe in being a responsible patient when it comes to my knowledge & co care of my disease. Thank you!!

@deneenbabin592 3 года назад

Morning Dr B, I like this new format change. Yes please continue. Why? Bc a picture paints a thousand words. :)) Best regards, Deneen (pump girl in Dayton)

@katiedevlin9995 2 месяца назад

This is extremely helpful. I look at my own MRI and see a lot of things, then the report says stable. It is helpful to see what to look for.

@msenit4lifepattylong76 3 года назад

Amazing video! I like this format. MRIs and the programs to view them have advanced dramatically. I always come home with my CDs confused how to find what I was shown. I understand the views a lot better now. This will be very helpful. Thanks!

@donnap.c.886 3 года назад

Hello Dr. Boster, I would leave a comment, but all have been such great comments that cover so many areas Nd questions that I don't believe I need to add any more at this time. Thank you and yes I would like to see more!

@daledaiuto6902 2 года назад

Yes I sure would like see more videos on this subject. This is very interesting, and information. I always look at my own MRI'S. Now I can learn more about my own brain. Thank you for your support and dedication. 😎

@paulmartell5833 3 года назад

I love the detailed clear explanations of the information Relating to MS. Having had a One hour and forty five minute scan today for both the head and spine with and without contrast - I like to see what it is they are viewing. Wish the actual pictures were available not just their perception of what is there. I always laugh when I have to get this done, as they say something isn't right up there (but that is as descript as they get) and I respond with - with all of the equipment and education you guys have I am disappointed as Mom told me that since I was five. Ha Ha

@petracb3114 3 года назад

@snowstros 3 года назад

Thank you Dr. Boster. I really enjoyed this video and format. It’s very helpful in understanding MRIs and results, and similar videos would be appreciated.

@wellnesshearddifferently5920 3 года назад

Definitely an interesting video Doc! We love seeing this!

@gotwake7 3 года назад

Awesome video and really help explain what the doctors are looking for. I really appreciate you making this video. Cheers

@lillianpenney 3 года назад

Interesting, please continue to share

@desiredecove5815 3 года назад

This is such an educational video. I love this format for teaching purposes. Love how you explain how a few lesions can “ glom” together. Over time. Helps understand how the # of lesions really isn’t the issue- it’s location.❤️ #WeHaveMS

@desiredecove5815 3 года назад

It was suggested if you could do one on the cervical spine MRI then Thoracic then lumbar by Amber Genaw

@Elantragirl87 3 года назад

Love this type of video! You have a wonderful way of explaining MRIs that help me understand my checkups with my neuro so much more.

@AaronBosterMD 3 года назад

Glad it was helpful!

@KristapsKKK 3 года назад

If you see those scans, can you tell anything about possible impact in everyday life? Any info about patient, age, therapie, when MS was diagnosted etc would be interesting addition.

@CB-ex9pr 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing, very Easy to understand the MRI.

@karakarabobara 3 года назад

I appreciated this format. Always so easy to learn from you. Good vibes 🤗

@user-xk3lj3sc5p 3 года назад

Please please please more videos like this one!!! It helps me to understand what I'm looking at when viewing my own MRIs as well as those of my MS sisters. And my teen is currently studying Medical as well as her academic high school classes & her initial presentation to get selected for medical classes in 9th grade was on MS, what it is, how it impacts people, what treatment options are currently approved, what we are looking at in regards to immediate future, etc ... She plans on doing a much larger, fuller, more in-depth presentation upon graduation & videos like this are very helpful. And please Dr Boster, I can hear a tiny cold creeping up on you. Rest and keep your immune system strong during these Covid times as we both know that a weakened immune system let's cooties in more easily.

@cyberjacksr101 3 года назад

👍I really appreciated this 'inside view w/ explanation' Thank You!

@laurad3497 3 года назад

I am a person who likes to know what’s going on regardless of good news or bad news… And this is definitely wonderful because my docs don’t tell me much or explain how/what/why.

@frederikmeire 3 года назад

This is what we need to understand our own imaging better. Thank you

@ShameccaStephens 3 года назад

Absolutely loved this !!! Super informative and breaks down all the Terminology and what things means ! It helps to see what it’s doing in the brain 🧠

@Bejeweled0519 3 года назад

This video is fantastic! I really learned a lot and I can't wait to explore the spinal video coming up!

@lisatodd3420 3 года назад

@sonias.k6377 3 года назад

Thank you so much for this. It really helps me understand the true purpose and use of the mri analysis and exactly what is being tracked. I greatly appreciate this

@EmilyWithers 3 года назад

Love this! I don't always get to see my MRI with my specialist and when I look at it on my own I don't often know what I am looking at. I would love to see more of these walkthroughs!

@DaffyDuck_0987 Год назад

This was a really insightful video! Definitely going to ask my neurologist to go through my next MRI like this. Your content is always so helpful! Thanks Dr B

@chodge57 4 месяца назад

Very helpful! Keep them coming

@moveforward2202 3 года назад

Yep this is SUPER helpful! I am obsessed at looking at my MRIs and my Neuro Quant and trying to go through it as my neuro spends very little time on it.

@sheilathepotter6636 3 года назад

This is a fantastic video, thank you. Might have to ask my neuro for copies of my MRI and re-watch this while comparing to my own scans. 😄

@WorkingK9 3 года назад

Love these videos! Very informative. Thank you!

@ncfd32 3 года назад

Yes! Very informative, thanks for sharing. I don’t want to see my MRI but I love the explanation of how you read them!

@carolinegazaille3256 5 месяцев назад

@cmasson17 3 года назад

Thank you! I just had my MRI and now have some knowledge.

@rickbailey6084 3 года назад

Very interesting. I would be fascinated to learn more if you were to produce more videos like this. Thanks, Dr. B!

@RenEBerry. 3 года назад

Yes!! Specific information, especially with objective findings as part of discussion is wonderful. It helps inform me and future questions for my neurologist who does not typically show me my scans. I’m guessing because they’re stable, but I hate not seeing them, and now I have intelligent questions and a reason to see my scans, past merely that I want to.

@elinordrake9716 2 года назад

I actually don't have an ms diagnosis but some imaging I had recently showed volume loss & your video explained that well for me. Thanks!

@willowtree9082 3 года назад

🙏 thank you Aaron for sharing that, knowledge is power not only for the specialist but for the patient/client as well, it's empowering to know what is going on with our own bodies, I'd be Very interested in viewing the same in regards to the spinal cord as well, bless you for all that you do.

@EvenSoItIsWell 3 года назад

Thank you Dr. Boster. Yes please, more videos like this. Knowledge is power and the more we know the less mysterious and frightening this can seem.

@kelly-bo-belly 3 года назад

This video was very interesting and quite helpful. Thank you for the time you make for this village. You should take a month off from these videos. We would support you in taking a break or slowing down. I worry that we push you too much in a selfish manner. Don’t feel obligated to do so much. We ask for a lot when you have already given tremendously. Take care of yourself, Dr. B. 💕

@andrewreisinger6860 3 года назад

Yes! I find theses MRI videos extremely interesting. Thank you Doctor Boster. The size of my ventricles are HUGE. Diagnosed at 22, I'll be 50 next week. Looking at my images, I can't believe that I am still (kinda) walking.

@scottmorgan650 3 года назад

Very good and informative. The explanation is easy to understand. I really enjoy all your videos.

@AaronBosterMD 3 года назад

Thank you very much!

@EthanHeming 3 года назад

This is really great! The only thing I would love is a comparison healthy brain for reference. It would be easier to see what abnormal looks like if I can calibrate what I SHOULD be seeing.

@randholtham8493 3 года назад

Yes this is an interesting topic that I really would like to learn more about! Deeper is better! Like for example this lesion would likely present this symptom.

@WMACPT 3 года назад

Yes please do more videos like this. Also comment on what type of MS you’d dx these patients with. And their Nuero deficits if applicable. Thanks Dr Boster!
