Abstract
- Congenital anomalies of the pediatric spine are ideally evaluated with MR imaging. The wide spectrum of pathology in this category of disease is dramatically displaced for both diagnosis and treatment planning for the neurosurgeon. An understanding of embryology and knowledge of the clinical presentation combined with the MR imaging findings allows the radiologist to play a key role in the evaluation of these complex anomalies.
