Magnetic Resonance Myelography |
---|
Magnetic resonance myelography (MR myelography or MRI myelography) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique that can provide anatomic information about the subarachnoid space. It is a type of MRI examination that uses a contrast medium and magnetic resonance imaging scanner to detect pathology of the spinal cord, including the location of a spinal cord injury, cysts, tumors and other abnormalities. The procedure involves the injection of a gadolinium based contrast media into the cervical or lumbar spine, followed by the MRI scan.[1][2]
