The thoracic spines of a group of 48 oncology patients were examined with high field (1.5 T) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Sagittal T1-weighted sections were obtained in all patients. Even using this single sequence an unexpectedly high prevalence of thoracic disk herniation (14.5%) was demonstrated. Thoracic disk herniation shown by MR may not be related to the patients' symptoms.
对一组48名肿瘤患者的胸椎进行了高场强(1.5T)磁共振(MR)成像检查。所有患者均获得矢状位T1加权图像。即使仅使用这一序列,也发现胸椎椎间盘突出症的患病率意外地高(14.5%)。磁共振成像显示的胸椎椎间盘突出症可能与患者症状无关。
