7 Tesla MRI Evaluation of the Spine
Sponsor
Balgrist University Hospital
Enrollment
600 participants
Start Date
Jun 1, 2020
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Conditions
Summary
High-resolution MRI (7 Tesla) of the cervical spine is capable to provide good differentiation between nerve and surrounding tissues within foramen und allows to reliably quantify the diameter of nerve roots/ganglia. Secondly, detailed anatomy of vertebral artery and its relation to neural structures / foramina can be assessed.
