title: Review: indications for interventional radiology in the management of patients with spinal cord injuries.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To outline a range of minimally invasive image-guided procedures that benefit spinal cord-injured patients and may expedite clinical care.
  
  
  METHODS
  Pictorial review.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Image-guided procedures have made a significant impact in medical management in many specialties. These techniques continue to evolve rapidly and afford opportunities to reduce patient morbidity and in-patient length of stay.
