Worried about sticking your neck out & calling severe cervical stenosis?

Here’s how to grade canal stenosis:
CANAL STENOSIS
Cord swims in CSF, like a fish in water. Like a fish, it needs room to swim. How much room is in the fish bowl determines stenosis
(1) Mild stenosis = fish bowl decorations take up 1 side of the bowl. Not great, but fish can still swim. Either ventral or dorsal CSF is effaced, but the other side of the fish bowl is still empty
(2) Moderate = decorations take up both sides—swimming is very affected. Both ventral and dorsal CSF have been effaced.
(3) Severe = all out w/decorations & there’s no more room for the fish. No room for the cord & it is compressed.
In this month’s @theAJNR, Koo et al. found that using a deep learning algorithm produced images in half the time—and the images were non-inferior for evaluation of degenerative chages & canal stenosis
Now you know the grading of canal stenosis, for both normal & fast AI imaging!
Hopefully, you’ll take to this rating system like a fish to water!

🛑Facet joint arthropathy is arthritis that affects the facet joints in spine.The most frequent cause of pain in facet joints is OA.
Chronic back pain is a common pain syndrome attributed in part to the facet (zygapophysial) joints in up to 82% of cases.
In this new #BJAEd article, Pun and colleagues provide a fantastic overview of the innervation of the hip joint and its implications for regional anaesthesia and interventional pain procedures:

Prediction and Mechanisms of Spontaneous Resorption in Lumbar Disc Herniation: Narrative Review

“The bull’s eye sign on enhanced MRI,
which is a ring enhancement around a protruding disc, is a vital indicator for easy reabsorption.”
How to read an MRI. This is called an axial view. Left side of the screen is the right side of the body. And here are some basic structures that can be seen on this type of scan. #mri#brain#neuroanatomy#neuroscience#radiology#radtech
