摘要
本文对正常成人200例颈髓和100例胸髓进行MRI检查,在各椎间隙水平测量脊髓矢状径和横径,计算其平均值、标准差及矢状径与横径比值,根据颈髓按性别与年龄分组的统计结果表明,同一椎间节段各径线大小无性别及年龄差异(P>O.05或P>0.1)。脊髓径线测量在MRI上简便易行,其结果对脊髓病变诊断具有较大使用价值。
MRI was performed in 200 cervical spinal cords of normal adults and the thoracic spinal cord was done in 100 normal adults as well. The sagittal and transverse diameters of spinal cord were measured on each intervertebral level. The mean value and standard deviation, the sagittal diameter/trabsverse diameter ratios of spinal cord were calculated by a computer. The results showed that the differences between the different age groups and Sex groups were not significant with regard to mean sagittal and transverse diameters of the cervical spinal cord. We consider that MRI measurement of spinal cord is very useful to diagnose of intramedullary disease
