Fourteen patients with cervical spine injuries, 12 with resultant neurological deficits, were scanned with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging within 7 days following injury. Useful information concerning the status of the spinal canal and disks was obtained in most cases. In addition, MR was able to suggest the nature of the pathological changes within the spinal cord, as well as hemorrhage and edema in the extraspinal soft tissues. These observations indicate that following acute cervical spine trauma, MR is a valuable technique in assessing injury to the spinal cord, surrounding soft tissues, vertebra, and disks.
14例颈椎损伤患者,其中12例伴有神经功能缺损,在受伤后7天内接受了磁共振(MR)成像扫描。在大多数情况下,获得了有关椎管和椎间盘状况的有用信息。此外,MR能够提示脊髓内病理改变的性质,以及脊柱外软组织的出血和水肿情况。这些观察结果表明,在急性颈椎创伤后,MR是评估脊髓、周围软组织、椎体和椎间盘损伤的一项有价值的技术。
