MRI DISCOGRAPHY vs INVASIVE DISCOGRAPHY FOR LOCALISATION OF DISCOGENIC BACK PAIN

MRI Discography, also known as MRI Disc Spectroscopy, is an emerging non-invasive MRI technique which allows spectroscopic analysis of the biochemical composition of intervertebral discs using advanced MRI techniques and specialised software. Studies have demonstrated a high correlation between non invasive MRI Disc Spectroscopy and conventional Invasive Provocative Discography. MRI Disc Spectroscopy allows spectral analysis

EOS IN TOTAL HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENT

EOS IN TOTAL HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENT EOS scanning is a sophisticated low dose imaging technology that uses dual X-Ray tubes to scan the spine, lower limbs or the full body in a natural upright resting position to create detailed, high resolution 2D and 3D images that allow accurate measurement of a wide range of

BACK PAIN – IMAGING AND IMAGING-GUIDED INTERVENTION

Lower back pain is one of the most common clinical presentations in general practice and emergency departments around the world, and around 80% of us will experience issues with back pain requiring management in our lifetimes. Degenerative disc disease is so common with advancing age that from a radiological perspective it can almost be viewed

IMAGING-GUIDED MANAGEMENT OF SHOULDER PAIN

Shoulder pain requiring some form of management affects around a quarter of Australians in their lifetime, making it one of the most common and debilitating musculoskeletal complaints. The range of underlying pathology is vast, but from a primary care perspective, identifying or excluding some key treatable acute pathologies is an important first step in diagnosis

MRI AI IMAGE ENHANCEMENT – A 3T GAME-CHANGER

Over almost two decades working in private clinical radiology with a focus on musculoskeletal imaging, I’ve seen an astounding progressive evolution in imaging technology. Until recently, advances in image quality have largely been a reflection of the steady evolution of engineering technology such as the emergence of high magnetic field strength MRI and its widespread
