Overview
MRI may be helpful in establishing the etiology of respiratory failure, in particular if the cause is due to a pathology of the neck, central or peripheral nervous system. MRI may suggest that stroke, tumor, spinal cord injury and/or complete spinal transection are the cause of respiratory failure. Findings on MRI may include embolism, thrombosis, and haemorrhage.
MRI
- MRI may be helpful in establishing the etiology of respiratory failure, in particular if the cause is due to a pathology of the neck, central or peripheral nervous system.[1]
- Findings may suggest that stroke, tumor, and/or complete spinal transection are the cause of respiratory failure.
- Findings on MRI may include:
- Embolism
- Thrombosis
- Haemorrhage
