Thoracic constrictive arachnoiditis after Pantopaque myelography: report of two cases.

abstract：:A new head-positioning system has been developed to hold the head firmly during the performance of a computed tomograhic scan and to position the head reproducibly during repeat scans. This can be used to maintain the head in position during long scanning sessions, to relate a lesion to landmarks on scout views, to fo...
