MRI Cervical Spine Scan

MRI Cervical Spine scan is a non-invasive and advanced imaging technique used to obtain high-resolution images of the structures within the neck, including the cervical spine (the vertebrae in the neck), the disks, the spinal cord, and the spaces around the spinal cord.

The cervical spine consists of seven vertebrae at the top of the spinal column, surrounding and protecting the spinal cord while supporting the skull. Between these vertebrae are disks filled with a gel-like substance, acting as cushions and providing flexibility to the spine. A Cervical MRI Spine< or MRI neck spine can be particularly useful in diagnosing issues like stiffness, neck pain, numbness or weakness in the arms, and other neurological symptoms. It is also highly effective in identifying conditions such as spinal stenosis, herniated disks, tumors, infections, and injuries.
