Computer Assisted Myelography in Disk Disease

Abstract
Computer assisted myelography (CAM) is a technique to examine the spinal subarachnoid space. Adjacent structures that may impinge on this space such as the intervertebral disks, and structures contained in this space such as the spinal cord, spinal roots and vascular formation, may also be appraised by this method. CAM is performed by subarachnoid introduction of water soluble contrast material followed by computed tomography in the axial transverse plane. A new technique and the results with representative cases [human] of intervertebral disk disease are presented.
