Diagnosing cervical radiculopathy (CR) can be difficult because of symptomatic overlap with peripheral neuropathies. In this retrospective observational study, we aimed to determine whether short‐tau inversion recovery (STIR) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences are useful for detecting signs of denervation in the multifidus muscles in patients with CR.

使用3-Tesla磁共振成像对多发性肌肉去神经性水肿在宫颈神经根病中的诊断价值

由于周围神经病变的症状重叠，因此诊断宫颈神经根病（CR）可能很困难。在这项回顾性观察性研究中，我们旨在确定短头倒置恢复（STIR）磁共振成像（MRI）序列是否可用于检测CR患者多纤维肌的神经支配体征。
