MR myelography has been performed by several authors. Most authors have used techniques based on three-dimensional gradient-echo pulse sequences or fast spin-echo pulse sequences. The examination time varied between 5 and 13 minutes and postprocessing with a maximum-intensity projection algorithm was necessary for three-dimensional visualization. The rapid acquisition with relaxation enhancement (RARE) was initially described by Hennig et Al. In this technical note we present our experience with a single-shot turbo spin-echo sequence, derived from RARE, of approximately 2 seconds to obtain one view. MR myelography can replace conventional myelography in all different types of pathology. In addition MR myelography provides additional information compared to MR imaging in a minority of the cases. Taking into account the ultra-rapid acquisition and the absence of postprocessing procedures, we recommended this technique in the appropriate clinical setting. The MR myelogram increases the level of conficence of the neuroradiologist.
