Evidence of CSF enhancement in the spinal subarachnoid space after intravenous contrast medium administration: is intravenous computer assisted myelography possible?

Following intravenous injection of iodinated contrast medium, peripheral enhancement of the area inside the spinal canal, is frequently observed by computed tomography. This may be due, at least in part, to enhancement of the cerebrospinal fluid in the spinal subarachnoid space. Our preliminary observations in human patients and in animal experiments are reported. The goal of intravenous computer assisted myelography is worth pursuing.

Cerebral computed tomography in Reye syndrome.

The computed tomography (CT) findings in a case of Reye syndrome are presented. A striking discrepancy between the CT attenuation of infratentorial (elevated values) and supratentorial structures is observed.

Diving-type injury of the cervical spine: contribution of computed tomography to management.

We have utilized computed tomography (CT) in addition to conventional radiography for evaluation and as a guide to management of serious diving injuries to the cervical spine. This technique has proven to be invaluable in the initial assessment and further clinical management of this type of injury. A classification of these injuries and associated fractures is presented based on CT appearance. Representative cases are presented comparing standard radiography and CT.

Computerized tomography of the spine and its contents.

The authors present their experience with computerized tomography of the spine both with and without contrast material. Our early experience indicated the substantial potential of this new technique. Further experience confirms this earlier impression. Representative cases of computer tomography of the spine and computer-assisted myelography are presented.

Computer assisted myelography in disk disease.

Computer assisted myelography (CAM) is a technique to examine the spinal subarachnoid space. Adjacent structures that may impinge on this space, such as the intervertebral disks, as well as structures contained in this space, such as the spinal cord, spinal roots, and vascular formation, may also be appraised by this method. At present, CAM is performed by subarachnoid introduction of water soluble contrast material followed by computed tomography in the axial transverse plane. The authors present their technique and their results with representative cases of intervertebral disk disease.
