Metrizamide myelography in cervical spine trauma: a modified technique using lateral fluoroscopy.
Supine metrizamide myelography is difficult to perform in cervical spine trauma patients because the contrast agent does not pool in the cervical area. A technique that uses rapid sequential lateral tomograms to enhance visualization of the traumatized spinal cord is described.
