Assessment of the cervical spine denticulate ligament using MRI volumetric sequence: Comparison between 1.5 Tesla and 3.0 Tesla

摘要

Background. - Denticulate ligaments (DLs) are pial extensions on each side of the spinal cord, comprising about 20 to 21 pairs of fibrous structures connecting the dura mater to the spinal cord. These ligaments are significant anatomical landmarks in the surgical approach to intradural structures. To our knowledge, there is no previous study on the detection of DLs using MRI.
