Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Neurology
  • Orthopedics

Background:

  • Spinal disorders require accurate diagnostic methods.
  • Comparing various imaging techniques is crucial for clinical decision-making.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (M.R.I.) for spinal disorders.
  • To compare M.R.I. findings with Computed Tomography (C.T.), myelography, discography, and surgical outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • A series of 100 patients with spinal disorders were included.
  • M.R.I. scans were performed and findings were correlated with C.T., myelography, discography, and operative results.

Main Results:

  • M.R.I. demonstrated significant value in diagnosing spinal conditions.
  • The findings suggest M.R.I. is a reliable imaging modality for spinal pathology.

Conclusions:

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a highly effective tool for diagnosing spinal disorders.
  • M.R.I. offers a valuable diagnostic investigation compared to conventional methods.
