Technique will depend on whether a conventional (non-dynamic) or dynamic CT myelogram is being performed. In both instances, a water-soluble non-ionic iodinated contrast should be used for CT myelography to a maximum dose of 3 g iodine to avoid neurotoxicity 4,5.

A myelogram is an imaging test that uses a contrast material and X-rays or computed tomography (CT) scans to get detailed pictures of your spine. Healthcare providers might recommend a myelogram if you have chronic back pain.
14 lut 2020 · The high spatial resolution of CT myelography can delineate nerve roots well in the intrathecal contrast material. CT myelography is 95% sensitive and 98% specific to depict nerve root avulsions . Nerve root avulsion is usually demonstrated at imaging as absence of a nerve root in the spinal canal and is often asymmetric .
1 sty 2024 · Myelography is a generic term to refer to an imaging procedure performed to evaluate the subarachnoid spaces within the spinal canal and is performed after the intrathecal injection of either contrast media (for fluoroscopy, xrays, CT and MRI) or radiopharmaceuticals.
A computed tomography (CT) scan is frequently performed immediately following the conclusion of the myelography while contrast material is still present within the spinal canal. This combination of imaging studies is known as CT myelography.
14 lut 2020 · CT myelography is an important imaging modality that combines the advantages of myelography and the high resolution of CT. It provides a detailed delineation of pathologic spine conditions,...
30 wrz 2021 · CT myelography (CTM) is a diagnostic CT examination with prior intrathecal contrast agent administration. CTM enables the evaluation of various spinal pathologies that contact, displace, or impinge the thecal sac, cord, or nerve roots [1, 2, 3].
