ABSTRACT
This study was conducted on 56 patients represented with spinal trauma [44 with acute trauma and 12 with old trauma]. All patients were examined by 1.5 Tesla MRI unit. Sagittal and axial planes in T and fast spin echo Ta sequences were obtained in most of the cases. Proton density sequence was added in chronic cases. Bony, disc and ligamentous injuries as well as para-spinal soft tissue injuries were clearly detected by MRI examinations. Good and satisfactory information about the state of the spinal cord was obtained by MRI examination
