However, computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typically performed in a supine position. We reported that axial loading of 50% body weight in the lumbar spine stimulates upright loading conditions [1]. The aim of our study was to simulate upright cervical spine loads using ...
Changes in the lower segments of the cervical spine are destruction of the apophyseal joints resulting in the so-called stepladder phenomenon. Because of the uniform response of the discovertebral complex to different noxae, a number of different conditions must be distinguished on the basis of ...
Recently, using axial T2-weighted sequences and quantifying the signal hyperintensity after SCI, two novel MRI biomarkers have been reported: (1) axial damage ratio, (2) region-specific damage [16, 17]. The axial damage ratio is determined by finding the axial slice where the area of cord ...
87 patients with subaxial cervical spinal injury and without vertebral fracture or dislocation underwent anterior surgical stabilization.X-ray,computed tomography(CT) and MRI were performed in all patients pre-operatively.MRI features of discontinuity on sagittal T1-weighted image(T1D),longitudinal high ...

Advanced imaging, including CT and possibly MRI, is essential. Although most of the facet dislocation injuries are managed surgically, careful decision making should be performed regarding operative approach and possible closed reduction.References (47) J.H. Harris et al. A practical classification of...
I looked at an MRI from 2016 I originally had for a tongue swelling to see if it might show evidence for Optic neuritis which I believe I had at that time. I noticed coronal slices show the outer circumference of the optic nerve as especially bright and ragged or irregular along much of...

Lesions in the sacroiliac joints and spine on MRI have potential prognostic value for structural progression, especially the presence of fat metaplasia. MRI inflammatory scores can discriminate between active therapy and placebo and have been a consistent predictor of the efficacy of novel treatments in...
[20] proposed another deep learning-based fully automatic spine center lie detection in CT images. Although CT imaging offers increased patient comfort, faster scanning times and higher resolution images output, MRI is often prescribed by physicians due to its better contrast in pictures of organs,...
