  • Title: Xenon enhancement for computed tomography of the spinal cord.
    Author: Pullicino P, du Boulay GH, Kendall BE.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1979 Aug 15; 18(2):63-6. PubMed ID: 471223.
    Abstract:
    The spinal cord is not consistently shown by plain computed tomography or with iodide enhancement. Xenon enhancement increases the attenuation of the spinal cord and visualization is improved considerably; fluid-filled cavities, including syringohydromyelia, do not enhance and are clearly defined.
