Is that a common practice? My husband had his gallbladder out a few years ago and when the surgeon showed up my husband asked something about looking at the scans and he arrogantly said something about not needing to look at them, he hadn't looked at them, etc.

We both thought it seemed really weird but now reading this, I wonder if it routine.

MRI is a complex technology. Radiologists are trained to read them. Doctors usually read and rely upon the radiologist’s report.

Some doctors do read the MRI, but the radiologist is the specialist.
