The MRI which you had is the gold standard for identification. CT scans are for folks that cannot have a MRI or have had a bleed. CT's are quicker but MRI's have more detail.
I believe you got good information from your Neurologist, so try to relax, you'll be alright. As for the pain you may need a nerve conduction study to determine the source. It's possible that it is something impinging on the trigeminal nerve. I wish you well and feel free to ask any additional questions.
