Les radiographies standard restent utiles pour dépister les étroitesses canalaires et surtout permettent une analyse dynamique. L'IRM estime les composantes tissulaires ainsi que le retentissement médullaire. Le scanner analyse au mieux les éléments osseux.Abstract: Conventional X-rays are useful for visualizing spinal stenosis and play a key role in dynamic analysis. MRI measures soft tissue components and their impact on the spinal canal. CT scans are particularly suited to bone abnormalities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
