Abstract
AbstractIntraoperative spinal ultrasonography is now considered an indispensable tool in many operations on the spine and spinal cord. Using ultrasonography, surgeons can now easily find and evaluate lesions within the spinal cord, dural sac, and along the ventral margin of the vertebral column during operations. Syrinxes, intra‐ and extramedullary tumors, hematomas, bone fragments, bullet fragements, cysts, and discs can be easily located and treated under ultrasonic guidance. In this article, we described the techniques used in peforming this procedure, normal anatomy, and images of various types of pathologic lesions.
