Digital Subtraction Myelography: Revolutionizing Spinal Cord Imaging
Digital subtraction myelography (DM) enhances spinal cord visualization by digitally subtracting the overlying structures from X-ray images. It utilizes contrast agents and fluoroscopy to capture images, which are then processed to isolate the spinal structures. DM aids in diagnosing spinal injuries, herniations, stenoses, tumors, and guides surgical interventions. Its benefits include enhanced accuracy, reduced radiation…
