Overview
An MRI provides a microstructural detail of the bone. It is very helpful in vertebral compression fractures. The short tau inversion recovery (STIR) sequence of an MRI is very sensitive for detecting vertebral edema, which results from fresh fractures or micro-fractures.
MRI
Indications for MRI include:
- Vertebral compression fractures
- Pre-surgical evaluation of kyphoplasty
- Adrenal tumors
- Metabolic bone disease
