Résumé

The cervical spinal canal has a wide range of motion and specific biomechanics involved with different pathologies that may cause dynamic cord compressions. This study has introduced new protocol for acquiring an extension view of cervical MRI to assess dynamic cervical spinal canal compromise. We posit that dynamic MRI comprising extension view in prone position could be a practical option when deciding the best approach in treating challenging patients.
