Comparing CT-like bone images based on FRACTURE MR with CT in pediatric congenital vertebral anomalies.

AJNR Am J Neuroradiol

December 2024

From the Department of Radiology (H.N.M., F.B.G.), Bai Jerbai Wadia Hospital for Children, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.

Background And Purpose: Congenital vertebral anomalies are commonly associated with underlying spinal cord anomaly which necessitates imaging both the spinal cord and the bony vertebral column to understand the extent of the deformity better. While MRI is the gold standard for spinal cord imaging, it does not provide CT-like bone details. Many MR bone imaging techniques have been tested in various adult spine conditions in the past decade but not much has been described on their reliability in pediatric spine.
