If your imaging is a year old and your symptoms have changed substantially... I don't see how they could justify not ordering new imaging.

Regarding the reports; most of the spine surgeons I know don't really care what the radiologist's report says. You see a great variance from one doctor's reading to the next. I honestly believe that there would be a great variance from the same doctor reading the same MRI on a different day.
