Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) effectively evaluates changes after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP). Bone cement appearance stabilizes at six months, while surrounding bone marrow edema gradually resolves.

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Radiology
  • Diagnostic Imaging
  • Spinal Surgery

Background:

  • Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP), introduced in 1984, treats aggressive vertebral angiomas.
  • Evaluating post-procedure changes is essential for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) patterns in vertebrae before and after PVP.
  • To track changes in signal intensity, cement distribution, and size over 12 months.

Main Methods:

  • MRI examinations of 14 patients with 41 treated vertebrae.
  • Utilized a 0.5-Tesla superconductive magnet for imaging.

Main Results:

  • Post-PVP MRI shows cement as T1 and T2 hypointense areas, stabilizing by 6 months.

  • Surrounding bone marrow edema (T1 hypointense, T2 hyperintense) gradually resolves.
  • Vertebral size shows minimal change post-treatment.
  • Conclusions:

    • MRI is the gold standard for evaluating PVP outcomes.
    • Understanding cement behavior and bone response is key for accurate interpretation.
