Understanding MRI CVJ With Contrast

What is MRI CVJ With Contrast?

A Brain Magnetic Resonance Imagining (MRI) with CV (craniovertebral) junction with Contrast creates a picture of the back of the head, the foramen magnum (hole in the base of the skull), the first two cervical vertebrae, and surrounding soft tissues. The contrast helps in increasing the visibility of the internal organs and hence improves the sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy of the MRI scan.

This test is prescribed by the doctor to diagnose cranial nerve and vertebral arteries problems and to detect causes of congenital abnormalities from childhood.

What is MRI CVJ With Contrast used for?

To diagnose vertebral artery compression, cranial (brainbox) nerve compression and obstructive hydrocephalus (blockage of Cerebrospinal fluid) and syringomyelia
To detect stenosis (narrowing of the foramen magnum), compression of the brain stem/spinal cord which leads to neckaches, headaches, neck aches
To analyze neuron palsy (neuro-degenerative disease which leads to death of brain cells and decrease in brain volume
To find out cancers like osteofibroma and chordoma
