Role of Computed Tomography for Evaluating Spinal Column

Computed tomography (CT) scans of the Vertebral Column (CT Vertebral Column) have demonstrated a higher level of accuracy than plain films and have been used to assess patients with spinal Lesions when magnetic resonance imaging is not available, radiation exposure remains a serious safety concern. Image reconstruction (IR) decreases the CT radiation dose for diagnostic imaging. However, the feasibility of using IR in CT Vertebral Column is unclear.
