Imaging of disorders of the spine

Although many papers were published during the past year on disorders of the spine, in this review, papers were chosen and grouped under five broad headings: 1) spinal trauma, 2) disk disease, 3) neoplastic disease, 4) spinal arthritis, and 5) other studies of interest. Although some of the articles chosen for review dealt with conventional radiography, the majority were on applications of CT and MR imaging to conditions affecting the spine.
