Developing spinal column: gadolinium-enhanced MR imaging.

Abstract: Enhancement characteristics of the normally developing spinal column were examined in magnetic resonance (MR) images obtained in 58 children aged 7 days to 9 years. With a 1.5-T imager, short-repetition-time spin-echo images were obtained before and after the administration of 0.1 mmol/kg gadopentetate dimeglumine. Enhancement of normal bone marrow was seen in all patients aged less than 7 years; it was marked only in patients aged less than 2 years. Enhancement of normal cartilage, seen in all patients aged l… Show more

“…It is normal to see persistent red marrow in the vertebral body with only isolated fatty marrow surrounding the basivertebral plexus as late as mid adulthood (33) (Fig 2). Although contrast enhancement of the basivertebral venous plexus persists throughout life, vertebral body enhancement is present only before 7 years of age due to its rich vascular supply, permeability of the capillaries, and the relative abundance of extravascular space (34).…”

“…Radiological features include four images: generalised osteopenia (spinal cord infiltration), osteolytic lesions of various size (Ewing's sarcoma, neurolastoma, osteosarcoma), adjacent lytic lesions (paravertebral lymphomas, extradural leukaemic masses) and osteoscleorosis-periostosis with ivory vertebra (lymphoma, osteosarcoma, chordoma) (33)(34)(35).…”
