The complexity of the congenital anomalies of the spine can make the neuroradiologic diagnosis challenging. Knowledge of spinal embryology greatly helps in the understanding and classification of these anomalies. We use the classification devised by Tortori-Donati and Rossi and find it helpful from clinical and imaging standpoints. We believe that most patients who have known or suspected congenital spinal anomalies benefit from MR imaging.
脊柱先天性异常的复杂性会使神经放射学诊断具有挑战性。脊柱胚胎学知识对理解和分类这些异常有很大帮助。我们采用托尔托里 - 多纳蒂和罗西设计的分类方法,发现从临床和影像学角度来看它很有用。我们认为,大多数已知或疑似患有先天性脊柱异常的患者都能从磁共振成像中受益。
