Prevalence and Imaging Characteristics of Nonmyelopathic and Myelopathic Spondylotic Cervical Cord Compression

Original language description

Study Design.Cross-sectional population-based observational study.Objective.To estimate the prevalence of nonmyelopathic spondylotic cervical cord compression (NMSCCC) and cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) in a population older than 40 years and to evaluate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of these conditions.Summary of Background Data.The prevalence of neither NMSCCC nor CSM is known and there exists no commonly accepted quantitative MRI definition of cervical cord compression.Methods.A group of 183 randomly recruited volunteers, 93 women, median age 66 years, range 40-80 years, underwent MRI examination of the cervical spine and spinal cord on a 1.5 T device using conventional sequences from disc levels C2/C3 to C6/C7. The imaging criterion for cervical cord compression was defined as a change in spinal cord contour at the level of an intervertebral disc on axial or sagittal MRI scan.Results.MRI signs of cervical cord compression were found in 108 individuals (59.
