    Introducing metrizamide into the lumbar subarachnoid space in a head-down position enhances contrast delivery for cervical myelography. This technique provides excellent visualization of the spinal cord and nerve roots.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Neurology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Cervical myelography is a diagnostic imaging procedure.
    • Accurate contrast delivery is crucial for visualizing spinal structures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate a modified technique for contrast administration in cervical myelography.
    • To improve visualization of the spinal cord and nerve roots.

    Main Methods:

    • Metrizamide contrast agent introduced into the lumbar subarachnoid space.
    • Patients positioned in a prone, 15-20 degree head-down orientation.

    Main Results:

    • Improved delivery of contrast material to the cervical region.
    • Excellent visualization of the spinal cord.
