Abstract:
An overview of MR imaging of the pediatric spine is presented with a systematic approach to the analysis of spinal dysraphic disorders. An introduction to the most commonly used MR imaging techniques, with an emphasis on the newer pulse sequence of cine MR flow of the cerebrospinal fluid and embryogenesis of the spine and spinal cord, provides the orientation for diagnosis of this common pediatric disorder.
