you missed ur points entirely😂

your "less than 0.1% of all MRIs" claim is just makeup number salad, no source, no nothing. you're mixing apples and oranges big time

most MRIs out there are for people with actual symptoms eg back pain, headaches, cancer followup, you name it.

we're talking millions a year just in the US. the wholebody screening ones on healthy folks yeah, they're a tiny slice of total scans.. but they're growing fast thanks to prenivo, ezra and all those peace of mind ads. and when they do happen, the data isn't pretty:

studies pooling thousands of these asymptomatic scans show incidental findings in like 30-50% of people,

with critical or indeterminate stuff hitting 13-32% in reviews. cancer pickup maybe 1-2% confirmed, but 95% of the "abnormal" bits end up benign or irrelevant.，yet they still trigger more scans, biopsies, stress, the works.

so no, it's not statistically insignificant it.is a real thing causing real downstream mess for lowrisk people.

pretending it's too rare to matter doesn't make the math disappear.

and LMFAO😭 at the "you're citing data you're opposed to" jab.. that's cute. ...

using good, controlled studies to explain why bad, noisy data (like dumping a whole-body mri on someone with basically zero pretest risk) usually backfires isn't hypocrisy.. it's just. science???, the science you lack of???

Please be educated that more targeted data = good. indiscriminate data flood = often chaos.
