Assessment of degenerative cervical stenosis on T2-weighted MR imaging: sensitivity to change and reliability of mid-sagittal and axial plane metrics.

Study Design: A retrospective cross-sectional study.

Objective: To assess the sensitivity to change and reliability of various mid-sagittal and axial plane metrics in the assessment of patients with single-level degenerative cervical stenosis on T2-weighted MR imaging.

Setting: A diagnostic MR imaging facility in Sydney (Australia).
