Download or read book MRI of Degenerative Disease of the Spine written by Paola D'Aprile and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-08 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly illustrated case-based atlas thoroughly depicts the role of MR imaging in the assessment of patients presenting with pain due to degenerative disease of the spine and will serve as an excellent guide to differential diagnosis. Importantly, generic radicular compression is the main reason for the painful symptomatology in only a limited number of cases, and this book illustrates and emphasizes how various anatomic elements of the spine can be responsible. The imaging features of a range of disorders involving both the anterior and posterior elements of the spine are described, including active inflammatory osteochondrosis, atypical herniated discs, facet joint disorders, spondylolysis, and degenerative-inflammatory changes of the spinal ligaments and posterior perispinal muscles. Each example is supported by clinical data, and a series of unusual cases are also presented. MR study protocols include T2-weighted sequences with fat saturation and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted sequences with fat saturation to allow better visualization or highlighting of various inflammatory changes in the spine. Radiologists, neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, orthopedists, and rehabilitation physicians will all find this atlas a valuable asset in their practice.

It is hoped that after reading this book physicians will become familiar with the MR images and the correlating imaging studies with clinical findings. This book is an effort to help the clinician in the visualization of the lumbar spine by defining normal and abnormal spinal anatomy and pathology in a clear concise manner. This will be attempted by means of high quality images, abundant line diagrams (some of them in color), image interpretation and appropriate comments. A general overview in certain conditions (spine secondaries, disc herniations, etc.) is given in order to give an in-depth understanding of the particular condition. This pocket book has seventy seven MR images, ninety one line diagrams, fifteen color images and six tables. Almost each MR image has a corresponding line diagram for better interpretation and understanding. It gives a glimpse of the art of interpretation of lumbar spinal MR images needed for day to day practice. This handy book would be most useful not only to general practitioners but also young radiologists and all physicians.
