Menopause, also known as the climacteric, is the time in most women's lives when menstrual periods stop permanently, and the woman is no longer able to have children. Menopause typically occurs between 45 and 55 years of age.
The turnaround time for an MRI scan depends on the radiologists' schedule. At many medical centers, the radiologist may interpret the scan and write a report on the order of several hours to one day. From that point, it is up to the physician who ordered the MRI scan to share the results with the patient.
It can take time for test results to come through. How long will depend on why you are having the scan. Usually, a specialist in MRI sees the scan and dictates a report to be typed up. The report is then sent to your specialist, who gives the results to you.
