Radiologist Questions Lumbar MRI

Will a lumbar MRI on my back tell me if my discs are fine?

I'm 27, and after hurting myself playing sports, my back has been in pain--I think there's something wrong with my discs. My doctor wants me to have an MRI, will this tell me if my discs are fine?

Yes. MRI the lumbar spine is a standard of care for disc disease degenerative osteoarthritis and disc herniations of the lumbar spine
MRI is the best test to evaluate the discs.
