That’s a problem with the interpretation, and how results are presented to patients. The MRI scanner is working as intended but the humans are getting the probabilities wrong, as usual.

Specificity is not always high. Yes, it’s an interpretation issue, but it’s a know problem. A better radiologist might help, but the issue is that many things look the same or very very similar on MRI. Evidence based medicine is the way to go.
