Service Providers for CT Myelogram of Dorsal Spine
CT Myelogram of Dorsal Spine is an imaging procedure that combines CT scanning with the injection of contrast dye into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) around the dorsal (mid-back) region of the spine. This technique enhances the visualization of the spinal cord, nerve roots, and vertebrae, helping diagnose issues like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, tumors, or nerve root compression in the thoracic spine. The procedure involves a lumbar puncture to introduce the contrast, and detailed images are captured using CT. It is minimally invasive, though some discomfort during the injection may occur.
