Abstract

A new method has been devised for obtaining high-quality cervical myelograms safely and easily through lumbar injection. This method uses simple radiographic equipment, and does not require a tiltable table or fluoroscopy. Fifty-seven patients with cervical disorders were examined by this method using 9.5 ml of iohexol (300 mg l/ml), and successful myelograms were obtained in all patients. No serious complications were encountered.
