EXAMINATION: MRA THORACIC SPINE W IVCON
HISTORY: 4D MRA: intradural AVM or dural AVF - Myelopathy, slowly progressing
TECHNIQUE: Dynamic thoracic MRA without and with contrast.
Post-processed images {Maximum intensity Projection (MIP),
Volume-rendered (VR), or Surface shaded display images (SSD)} were either directly obtained or created, reviewed and archived.
MR Contrast: Multihance
Route of Administration: IV
COMPARISON: MRI thoracic spine xxxxxxxxx, MRI lumbar spine xxxxxxxx
RESULT:
Counting reference: Lumbosacral junction. For the purposes of this report, L4-5 is considered the level of the iliac crest and there are 5 lumbar-type vertebrae. Anatomic Variant: Transitional lumbarized S1 vertebral
Alignment: Alignment is anatomic.
Cord: The cord is within normal limits of signal intensity and
morphology. The conus terminates near L2-3.
On the dynamic time-of-flight images, early opacification of slightly prominent serpiginous vessels anterior and posterior to the distal thoracic cord spanning the approximate T9-L1 levels, likely reflecting the anterior and posterior spinal arteries, without discrete vascular nidus or evidence of prominent shunting, the appearance and distribution of which is similar to MRI thoracic spine xxxxxxxx
Bone marrow signal/fracture: Mild chronic height loss at T8/T9, with approximately 30% height loss at each level, and no associated bony retropulsion. No evidence of confluent abnormal marrow replacement or an acute fracture.
Soft tissues: The prevertebral and paraspinal soft tissues are within normal limits.
Canal and foramina: Patent.
IMPRESSION
Slightly prominent serpiginous vessels anterior and posterior to the distal thoracic cord (spanning the approximate T9-L1 levels) without discrete vascular nidus, evidence of prominent shunting, or evidence of cord signal abnormality, similar to MRI of xxxxxxxx
Thoracic/Lumbar Anatomic Variant: Transitional lumbarized S1 vertebral body.
