Overview
MRI is preferred diagnostic imaging for spinal stenosis. Findings include:The narrowing of the spinal canal, bulging or herniated discs, pinched, inflamed or compressed nerves in the spinal cord, extradural spinal hematoma, abscess or tumor, disk rupture, spinal cord hemorrhage, contusion or edema.
MRI Spine
- MRI is preferred diagnostic imaging for spinal stenosis.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
- Patients with positive history of any cancer presenting with low back pain should undergo MRI-enhanced imaging.
- Epidural abscess is best detected by MRI.
- Findings include:[7][8][9][2][3]
- The narrowing of the spinal canal
- Bulging or herniated discs
- Compressed nerves in the spinal cord
- Extradural spinal hematoma
- Abscess or tumor
- Spinal cord hemorrhage, contusion or edema.
- Disc extrusion at C5-C6 with compression of the spinal cord, that shows hyperintense signal alterations on T2.
