Mr Imaging in Spinal Dysraphism: A Pictorial Review.
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Spinal dysraphism refers to the entire range of spinal column and neural axis anomalies. The objective was to evaluate the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in characterizing the congenital and developmental disorders of spine. Methods: MRI images depicting the spinal dysraphism, stored in InstaRAD system in Department of Radio diagnosis, SSIMS &RC, Davangere during the period of 2018 January to 2018 July were retrospectively reviewed and data were retrieved. All the patients were made to undergo MRI spine using 1.5 Tesla MRI, manufactured by GE, SIGNA. Conclusion: Imaging of spinal dysraphism may appear complicated as it is a group of diverse conditions which can have variable imaging appearance. A systematic approach and correlation with clinical, neuro-radiological and developmental data imaging correlation provides an organized approach in their accurate diagnosis.
