Spinal cord in a healthy subject, observed by 3-tesla anatomical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a T2-weighted image.

Spinal cord observed by 3-tesla anatomical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a T2-weighted image. The subject presented multi-stage degenerative changes, combining disc changes, endplate changes and a loss of the posterior concavity of the disc, especially at levels C4-C5.

Spinal cord and spinal column, observed by multimodal conventional 3-tesla human body MRI, with a T1-weighted image. This imaging technique enables us to locate any anomalies in the signal which might be evidence of tissue damage. It also allows us to comprehend the geometry of the medullary canal and detect potential atrophies or degenerative changes which could, for example, induce a compression of the spinal cord.

Very high spatial resolution morphological image (0.18 x 0.18 mm2 in the plane) of a spinal cord at cervical level, acquired by ultra-high field (7-tesla) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The contrast obtained enables us to distinguish the grey matter clearly from the white matter. Sub-structures can also be identified within the white matter (slender and wedge-shaped bundles). Other details such as nerve roots, blood vessels and ligaments are also visible. Thanks to improved signal-to-noise…

Cartography of the spinal cord in a healthy subject using high spatial resolution T1-weighted image contrast (0.6 mm isotropic). This image is a cartography of the longitudinal relaxation time (T1) in the sagittal plane, derived from 7-tesla MRI with a T1-weighted image. Quantitative MRI enables us to investigate structural differences in the different tissue compartments (grey matter, white matter, types of white matter fibre bundles). It can also detect pathological anomalies in comparison…
