What is kinetic MRI?
What is kinetic MRI? Kinetic magnetic resonance imaging (kMRI) is a novel imaging technique that combines the excellent soft tissue contrast and multiplanar capabilities of conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with “functional” or kinematic capabilities. What is a weight bearing MRI? Weight-bearing MRI, also known as Axial-loaded MRI, simulates a standing up position by applying compression to the lumbar spine. The imaging captures how the patient actually feels while standing, and takes into account the effect that gravity has on a patient's spine. Why is MRI best for spine? MRI is the best available method to visualize the spinal cord...
