Abstract

In the past years, there has been a remarkable improvement on imaging technology. Magnetic resonance (MR) is the method of choice for detection, diagnosis and therapeutic management for many disorders of the spine. A variety of innovative new MR methods have been developed. These new techniques include molecular diffusion sequences, MR myelography, a complete study of the entire spine, kinematic MR imaging of the spine, whole body MR exam and the fusion of different imaging modalities. These new technological developments have the potential to profoundly impact and modify imaging interpretation to offer a more efficient diagnostic and work-up of patients suffering from spinal disease.
