https://doi.org/10.20344/amp.256Abstract
Introduction: Computed tomography (CT) scans of the spine are among the most frequently performed neuroradiologic exams, studying several pathologies namely degenerative diseases. Specific signs in spine imaging initially described in conventional radiology can be applied to CT scans. The main goal of this work was their identification and characterization.
Methods: A review of the main imagiological signs in CT scans of the spine was performed.
Results and Discussion: The authors described those imagiological signs and correlated them with their associated pathologies.
Conclusion: The knowledge of these signs is extremely important to neuroradiologists as they often constitute important diagnostic clues in several pathologies.
