Comparison between the coronal diameters of the cervical spinal canal and spinal cord measured using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in Korean patients [PDF]
Background If the proportion of the spinal cord in the epidural space can be determined under C-arm fluoroscopy during cervical epidural block, a safe entry point for the epidural needle can be established.

On the bulk motion of the cerebrospinal fluid in the spinal canal
Radionuclide scanning images published in Nature by Di Chiro in 1964 showed a downward migration along the spinal canal of particle tracers injected in the brain ventricles while also showing an upward flow of tracers injected in the lumbar region of the

Verification Of Measurements Of Lumbar Spinal Dimensions In T1- And T2-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging Sequences [PDF]
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is commonly used to assess patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. No single MRI sequence has been shown to be superior in spinal canal measurements.

Accuracy of Patient-Specific Organ Dose Estimates Obtained Using an Automated Image Segmentation Algorithm [PDF]
The overall goal of this work is to develop a rapid, accurate, and automated software tool to estimate patient-specific organ doses from computed tomography (CT) scans using simulations to generate dose maps combined with automated segmentation ...
