Subsequent MD's Spotted Serious Injury In MRI Vulcan Imaging's Dr. Michael Ruff Said Looked Normal

"We stand by that report 100%" - Kim Mooney Vulcan Imaging Associates. I share another recent reading of a August, 2019 MRI in which Vulcan Imaging Associates MD Michael Brant Ruff claimed I had no injuries or anomalies present. Here, an "artifact" is spotted in the exact area in a separate 2019 CT broken bone shows up. The entire time I was told by the doctors they 100% stood by the erroneous reading and would not take a second look at them.

MY OWN PATIENT EXPERIENCE WITH VULCAN:

I, unfortunately was a patient and customer with Vulcan in 2019 & share my very negative account. My issues are unresolved / outstanding as of 2026.

Please see my several hours video on my 2019 MRI done by their radiologist Dr. Michael Brant Ruff MD. I had a broken skull injury I almost died from - 3 inch long insects & worms grew in the wound (SEE X-RAYS / MRI / CT IN VIDEOS). The MD wrote no injury appeared in an image review that showed 6 inches diameter infection in my head / neck area exactly the area to be examined, where I reported pain. Hear my call where Vulcan would not do anything to help me get their error corrected. The injury may cost over $1,000,000 USD to treat.

My call with Kim Mooney, Administrative Coordinator of Birmingham Alabama-based Vulcan Imaging Associates, who has 37 radiologists doctors in their group. I was told by Mooney that they "100% Stand By" a report of their radiologist who missed serious injuries in the MRI. She did not elaborate on who "they" were however. Mooney does not possess a medical license. I was also told they do not consult with patients and there was nothing their company could do in regards to my request to have a 2019 MRI scan reread, in which their doctor Michael Brant Ruff, stated I had no injuries and in which evidence of around 6 inches head trauma and infection can be observed. They would not put me in contact with the doctor or attempt to correct the error of their doctor.

My attempt to call (University Of Tennessee honors graduate) Neuroradiology specialist Dr. Michael Brant Ruff MD (Vulcan Imaging). I'm a patient attempting to have a misdiagnosed MRI reread (Broken Skull). The truth of my issue is I had broken the underside of my skull, over about a year the wound became infected and infested with some type of parasite. I received a $600 bill from (Ascension) St. Vincent's Ambulatory Healthcare Network LLC in 2019 for this scan, I was told no injuries appeared here. Subsequent to this, between 2018-2019 I had several X-Rays and CT scans through Saint Vincent's East Hospital Birmingham AL., in which I was told no injury appeared. When I obtained my medical records of these scans, however, broken bone appears clearly in the underside of my skull in the exact area where I had (and still have) pain. How 4 different radiologists working for St. Vincent's could have missed this injury is concerning.
