probably....I'm not a big fan of ct/mri on many pts like most of my colleagues(both md and pa). I recently found that I am the dept clinician who utilizes mri the least. some of my colleagues order more in a shift than I order in a year. my list for an emergent mri is pretty short.
the recent announcement validating ct colonoscopy did not make me happy. they will end up doing lots of workup on stuff that would be clearly nl through a scope.
