Sometimes small fractures are not picked up by an X-ray machine. I had a small fracture in the bone right above my knee that was misdiagnosed until I pressed for the MRI. Now this is not an insurance issue that is for certain. But because my insurance would not approve the MRI I paid for it out of pocket it was about $1k cash. They charge the insurance company $3K. But that is a whole other topic. The MRI found two small fractures. Not good for the MD or the insurance company. But back on point regarding Flagg. The X-ray is just making sure there is nothing broken. MRI will determine how bad the tissue damage is and then they can diagnose treatment once the know the level of the sprain. These athletes get multiple MRI’s when they are injured. They get the imagining done to see how the injury is healing. He rolled his ankle, nothing like Liam did. With the treatments they have know for this type of soft tissue injury he will more than likely be good to go by next weekend. He might miss the rest of the ACC tournament and maybe he won’t be 100% next weekend but my guess is that he will play. [/QUOTE]
