Update on Charb’s injury?

[rjas77]

any word? I read somewhere he’ll have an MRI

 

[MORGULON]

I did hear Mike MacDonald say he was "optimistic" about him. *

* If I heard correctly

 

[hox]

I saw him back out on the sideline after going to the locker room, so might not serious.

He was staying warm on a bike as well. But never went back In

They've had xray in the stadium for decades. Funny how they don't have MRI yet.

X-ray is usually for instant, cheap imaging of bone/structural analysis and provide a quick "we gotta do X now or Y happens" view.
MRIs are for more detailed, soft tissue stuff that you might as well go up to Swedish for. I only play a doctor in my home videos, tho, so someone with more knowledge let me/us hear it.

Xrays can also be more compact, they literally have mobile ones that they can bring to your house. MRI machines require some heavy duty RF protection and magnetic shielding, a very large space for the machine itself, and buffer room. They are also extremely expensive.

Yeah MRI equipment is far more difficult / expensive to have in the stadiums. Mike said optimistic no structural issues but will be confirmed with scans today / although possibly tomorrow. Whether he is able to make it back for the weekend even if the scan is clear is not certain (think back to grey zabel)

I don’t think any stadium has a MRI. They always run them the day after

If any stadium should have it, Levi's should.

Shame we were in Seattle

 

[jammerhawk]

LOL!!!

If there has been a team in the NFL that has had far too many injuries over the last few seasons it’s the Digits.

To me it’s just another in a continuing series of excuses.

Their roster is getting old, and their condition staff is second rate, they do this every season.

Sure they go occasionally to Super Bowls but they haven’t won one since 1995, their QB was Steve Young. You have to be over 30 to have even been alive when they won last.

They need more than a MRI at Levi’s Stadium they need a whole emergency ward.

You missed the joke.

 

[94Smith]

Well apparently they have a good power supply

 

[Followthelegion]

Certainly did and still very much in the dark. Levi’s should have one due to number of injuries … not sure how that’s relevant to Charbs getting hurt at Lumen?

I saw him later sitting on the bench next to K9 talking to him.

The person I was replying to us a Niners fan, re-read my exchange with him with that in mind.
