Rontgenblatter. 1987 Aug;40(8):248-54.
190 patients underwent MRI of the spine. In 119 cases pathological changes were detected. 82 of these were located in the extradural compartment, 14 were found in the intradural-extramedullary space and 23 were situated inside the myelon. Routinely, spin echo sequence were performed in sagittal direction (T1-weighted images as well as T2-weighted images), in about 20% combined with transverse sections. All patients were investigated using surface coils of 20 X 40 or 15 X 45 cm; Using a field of view of 350 mm, spatial resolution was 1.3 mm per pixel. The quality of images obtained in this way was clearly superior to techniques using the body coil.
190例患者接受了脊柱MRI检查。其中119例检测到病理改变。这些病例中，82例位于硬膜外腔，14例位于硬膜内髓外间隙，23例位于脊髓内。常规情况下，在矢状方向进行自旋回波序列检查（T1加权像以及T2加权像），约20%的病例结合横断面检查。所有患者均使用20×40或15×45cm的表面线圈进行检查；视野为350mm，空间分辨率为每像素1.3mm。以这种方式获得的图像质量明显优于使用体线圈的技术。
