Diagnosis of spinal epidural hematoma, extending through T11 to L2 vertebra levels, could be accurately made by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Spinal Epidural Hematoma: MRI of the Thoracic Spine; (Left) T1-weighted; (Right) T2-weighted. Note the large extradural lesion which compresses the thecal sac from L2 through S1. It is isointense on ...

If a doctor suspects a person has an epidural hematoma, they will do imaging tests, such as a CT scan, MRI, or an electroencephalogram. These scans will help a doctor see any bleeding on the brain.

The authors reviewed the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pictures of 25 children presenting over an 8.5 year period with new neurologic symptoms 1 to 7 days after a lumbar puncture.

The majority of interventional spine physicians reported using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ahead of lumbar epidural steroid injections (ESIs) to correlate with the physical examination, among ...
