Had an MRI yesterday....... [View all]

I've had 2 CT's that showed an 8mm meningioma and hyperostosis. The results of the MRI were sent to my PCP, she emailed me today that the MRI shows no meningioma & only what she says is a calcification. I will ask here to clarify what a calcification is exactly.

However, I am confused as to why one test shows one thing and the other test rules the first one out.

Also I was assuming that the meningioma might be the cause of my tinnitus and occasional loss of balance. So I will start all over and make an appointment with an ENT.

Any thoughts?
