Kernrechtsfrage
Whether post-decision MRI reports had to be considered and whether the file showed a sufficiently clarified medical basis for work capacity.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The later MRI reports were sufficiently closely connected to the disputed claim and could not be ignored; the medical evidence did not allow a reliable exclusion of organic impairment or its impact on work capacity.
Extrahierte Begründung
The Federal Court held that evidence created after the objection decision may be relevant when it is closely linked to the dispute and capable of influencing the assessment at the time of the decision. The cantonal court erred by disregarding the MRI findings, which could indicate a ligament injury relevant to pain and functional limitation.
