In this section, the normal spinal anatomy is illustrated using both MRI and myelography, as well as some more rarely used imaging techniques such as spinal angiography.Shelley A RenowdenPractical NeurologyRenowden SA: Normal anatomy of the spinal cord. Pract Neurol 2012, 12(6):367-370....
Amongst non-invasive methods, MRI has the highest capability for imaging of the spinal cord (Figs. 1 & 2). Paradoxically, MR imaging of the spine is challenging in view of the numerous sources of “errors” of measurement and processing of measured data. These result in serious artifacts ...

The cervical spine accommodates the spinal cord as it exits the skull. Each cervical spine has two nerve roots on each side, which arise from the spinal cord in the vertebral foramen. They are the ventral root (located posteriorly) and the dorsal root (located anteriorly). The ventral root...

Central nervous system, system of nerve tissue in vertebrates that consists of the brain and spinal cord. The central nervous system controls both voluntary movements, such as those involved in walking and in speech, and involuntary movements, such as br
Brain injuries, like strokes or lesions of the spinal cord, can have a huge impact on a patient's life, so let’s learn more about the structures implicated and how they communicate with the rest of the body. How does the brain communicate with other regions, for instance the hand, to...
Laxity in cervical spine ligaments causing atlantoaxial subluxation and compression of the spinal cord cannot be viewed with x-ray. The best way to view the extent of the subluxation and spinal compression in cases of rheumatoid arthritis is through MRI. Fractures of the cervical spine Are the...
However, a key question is how well these MRI-derived networks and hubs reflect the anatomic “hard wiring” first proposed to underlie the distribution of information for large-scale network interactions. Although much of the work on brain networks originated in the anatomic literature, MRI studies...
