Management of Cervical MRI Examination in Cases of Syringomyelia in the Spinal Medulla at Primaya Hospital Tangerang. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool for examining and detecting the body using a large magnetic field and radio frequency waves, without the use of X-rays or radioactive materials, which produces cross-sectional images of the human body/organs using a magnetic field. strength between 0.064 – 1.5 tesla (1 tesla = 1000 Gauss) and vibrational resonance of the hydrogen atom nucleus. MRI can produce images of the vertebral column, spinal cord, and also the CSF. The MRI screening procedure is ideal for the differential diagnosis of structural disorders that can affect the spinal roots and spinal cord. This examination is used in carrying out a vertebral examination at once, namely scanning starting directly from the cervical vertebrae and also up to the sacrum.
