  • Title: Radiography, myelography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging of the spine.
    Author: Sande RD.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 1992 Jul; 22(4):811-31. PubMed ID: 1641919.
    Abstract:
    Various methods of documenting pathologic change in the spine and spinal cord are available to the veterinary practitioner. Intimidation caused by the imaging modality and the fear that one will not be able to recognize or diagnose a lesion are the factors that limit the use of diagnostic imaging. One needs only to be able to recognize the variations of normal anatomy to be successful. Once an abnormal area has been identified, the diagnosis is soon to follow. Therefore one should concentrate on improving the simple skills associated with image interpretation and normal anatomy. Lesion identification and definitive diagnoses will follow by natural progression.
