Abstract:
:In this article, the basic principles of image quality pertaining to cervical spine imaging and the impact of technical advancements on image quality are reviewed. The role of new MR pulse sequences and new applications of older sequences in evaluating abnormalities of the spinal cord, disks, joints, and bones of the cervical spine are discussed.
