    Femoral Hernia?

    Sorry to resurrect an older topic, but I had this question on my mind with regards to imaging in general.

    I had an MRI, a CT, and two ultrasounds all of which the given radiologist deemed ‘normal, no defects’ essentially. Is there a means for the patient to request either a re-review with attention to groin hernia possibility, or is there someone that could be requested that has more expertise in diagnosing hernias from imaging that isn’t the garden-variety radiologist?

    I understand that radiology is very complex, every body is different – and radiologists are well educated to recognize a multitude of abnormalities. But I guess I am wondering if there is a specific professional that has the expertise to look just for hernia indicators in that same imaging.
