- MRI Findings after Recent Image-Guided Lumbar Puncture: The Rate of Dural Enhancement and Subdural Collections
In this study, 5.2% of patients had small, bilateral subdural collections after recent lumbar puncture, suggesting that asymptomatic subdural collections after recent lumbar puncture are not atypical and do not require further work-up. When MR imaging was performed within 2 days of lumbar puncture, none of the patients had diffuse dural enhancement
- Minimally Invasive Stent Screw–Assisted Internal Fixation Technique Corrects Kyphosis in Osteoporotic Vertebral Fractures with Severe Collapse: A Pilot “Vertebra Plana” Series
The stent screw-assisted internal fixation technique was effective in obtaining height restoration, kyphosis correction, and pain relief in patients with severe vertebral collapse
- Same-Day Bilateral Decubitus CT Myelography for Detecting CSF-Venous Fistulas in Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension
The authors report on the feasibility of obtaining diagnostic-quality bilateral decubitus CT myelography in a single session, avoiding the need to schedule separate examinations for the left and right sides on different days.
