Vertebral Artery Injury after Acute Cervical Spine Trauma:MR Angiography & Assess of Clin Consequences AJR 164:443-447, 4481995., Friedman,E.,et al, 1995 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract In our experience,vertebral artery injuries due to major cervical spine trauma as determined by MR angiography are common.Although these vascular abnormalities usually remain clinically occult,a small percentage of patients may suffer devastating neurologic complications of posterior fossa infarction.Noninvasive assessment of the vertebral arteries by means of MR imaging should be an integral part of the evaluation of the acutely injured cervical spine.
