That only makes sense since we are bi-pedal. It seems that MRI's in a laying down position would not present a correct positioning on our nerves, etc.

We don't have one here where I live and I wish we did. They are supposed to be better for correct imaging of the tailbone region which I need. I was told we don't even have one in the entire state.
