An MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) of the lumbar spine is a test that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the lower back area. Patients may need this procedure if they are experiencing lower back pain, numbness, or other symptoms that may be related to the spine or spinal cord. During the MRI, the patient lies on a table that slides into a large, tunnel-like machine where the images are taken. The procedure is painless, but the machine can be noisy and the patient may need to hold still for a period of time.
