Abstract
In case of painful scoliosis, a search for etiologic factors in the ve rtebral spinal canal and adjacent structures should be made. MRI with Gadolinium is useful to look for various pathology in and around the s pine in particular of spinal cord. CT scanning is indispensible for bo ny details. Thus CT and MRI are complementary in evaluation of patholo gy of spine in any modern imaging centers.
