Coronal plane mri spine. 10a the scout coronal plane image shows a complex left adnexal mass in a post menopausal woman arrows. This axial t2 weighted image was part of a cervical spine mri examination. An unsuspected solid nodule arrow is present.
It measures whether or not the upper spine is located over the midline normal or off to one side. Prospectively we studied 32 patients average age 148 years with idiopathic scoliosis mean thoracic cobb angle 33 degrees on radiograph and 18. For a human the mid coronal plane would transect a standing body into two halves front and back or anterior and posterior in an imaginary line that cuts through both shoulders.
The coronal plane is an example of a longitudinal plane because it is perpendicular to the transverse plane. To assess coronal balance a vertical plumb line is drawn downwards from the mid point of the c7 vertebral body exactly in the same way as for the assessment of sagittal balance 1. The mri may scan your whole spine or just a part of it.
Axial sagittal and coronal see the example image below. Sagittal coronal and transverse slices anatomy of the lumbar vertebrae cross sectional imaging on t1 t2 and 3d mr. Supine mri does not show deformity well and in particular subluxations in the coronal plane.
Coronal balance is one of the features that needs to be assessed on long spine radiographs obtained for spinal deformity particularly scoliosis. Richter j tschoeke sk gulow j eichfeld u wojan m von salis soglio g heyde ce patient safety in surgery 2011. The coronal plane from the mobi view mri scan shows the open i therapeutic options to prevent recurrence of an aggressive aneurysmatic bone cyst of the cervical spine of a 16 year old boy a case report.
This type of lesion could represent a malignancy of arising from the left ovary and warrants further evaluation. Imaging in spine surgery 2017. Unfortunately many patients undergoing spinal surgery may only have supine mri of their spine.
Its generally safe and painless. The coronal plane is often the most useful for evaluating bony anomalies spondylolysis or degeneration of the discs and facet joints. Unlike x rays and computerized tomography ct scans it doesnt use damaging radiation.
Mri provides exquisite detail of brain spinal cord and vascular anatomy and has the advantage of being able to visualize anatomy in all three planes.
