ABSTRACT

Spinal Tuberculosis is considering the most clinically important extra pulmonary form of disease.

Early recognition is therefore necesaary to minimize residual spinal deformity and/or permanent neurological deficit.

In this study we intended to Evaluate the CT and MRI images, morphology of spinal TB and correlated the imaging features of these two modalities.

A total of 30 patients, (CT:10 patients) and (MRI: 20 patients) images were retrospectively analyzed in 30 patients with proved spinal TB.
