  • Title: Evaluation of syringomyelia with metrizamide computed tomographic myelography.
    Author: Bonafé A, Manelfe C, Espagno J, Guiraud B, Rascol A.
    Journal: J Comput Assist Tomogr; 1980 Dec; 4(6):797-802. PubMed ID: 6894303.
    Abstract:
    Nineteen cases of cervical syringomyelia, five surgically confirmed, were examined with metrizamide computed tomographic myelography. While a collapsed cord appeared to be a very reliable finding in this series, those cases with distended cords can be studied with sequential scans (at 3 and 24 hr), allowing the distinction between syrinx and cystic intramedullary tumor by the presence or absence of delayed cyst opacification.
