Sharat Saxena Gets Standing MRI Before Lumbar Spine Surgery
Sharat Saxena said he is preparing for surgery on his lower back.
On September 9, he shared hospital photos while receiving a standing MRI.
The scan lets doctors take pictures while a person sits or stands.
This is different from a usual MRI, which is done lying down inside a tunnel-like machine.
Standing can put pressure on the spine, like it does during daily activities.
That may help doctors see some spine problems more clearly.
Saxena said he hopes to walk properly again and return to work.
Fans and colleagues sent him wishes for a speedy recovery.
