Popis: Spinal cord as soon as brain, can be affected by dysmyelinating and demyelinating diseases, as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM), Neuromyelis Optica (NMO) and Transverse Myelitis. Investigation of the spinal cord with a high field strength MR system is hampered by the inhomogeneous magnetic field, physiological movements and the small size of the anatomical area. We describe normal and pathological neuroradiological findings in spinal cord white matter and the parameters of optimized sequences for use with the 3T MR systems.
