Once again, I have the great fortune to work with Dr. Jeffrey Ross and the
excellent editorial and production staff at Elsevier, who spend countless hours in
the background attending to the many tiny details that distinguish an excellent
book. Although they frequently work in anonymity, the importance of these
team members is difficult to overstate. We are deeply indebted to them. I would
also like to acknowledge (and thank!) my wife and colleagues, who directly
or indirectly have supported the devotion of many hours’ time committed to
completing this project.

Preface
Welcome to the 4th edition of Diagnostic Imaging: Spine. Five years have passed since
the 3rd edition, and 16 years have flown by since the 1st edition was published in 2004.
This edition is a complete refresh with many new images, new categories of disease
(such as CSF leaks), new diagnoses, new art, and updated text and references. The same
wonderful formatting is present, with individual diagnoses capable of standing alone, but
with a logical integration within the larger sections. The Key Facts box retains its visual
prominence at the beginning of each diagnosis, allowing for a quick scan of the most
important bullet points when time is critical and attention spans are short. The text format
remains in the hallmark Diagnostic Imaging bulleted form that allows a large amount of
important information to be displayed in an easy-to-use and inviting layout. Prose text
chapters are included for the introduction to major sections, which are color coded, and
the use of tables allows quick scanning for important data and measurements.
Our coauthors and the staff at Elsevier are amazing to work with, and we have been
extremely fortunate to interact and learn from such a fantastic team. We hope you find
this edition useful, not only as a reference, but as an essential component in your daily
practice and in your care of patients.

(Top) Coronal graphic of the spinal column shows the relationship of 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 fused sacral, and 4 coccygeal
bodies. Note the cervical bodies are smaller with the neural foramina oriented at 45° and capped by the unique C1 and C2 morphology.
Thoracic bodies are heart-shaped, with thinner intervertebral discs, and are stabilized by the rib cage. Lumbar bodies are more massive
with prominent transverse processes and thick intervertebral discs. (Bottom) Coronal graphic demonstrates exiting spinal nerve roots.
C1 exits between the occiput and C1, while the C8 root exits at the C7-T1 level. Thoracic and lumbar roots exit below their respective
pedicles.

(Top) Oblique axial graphic of the thoracic spinal cord and arterial supply at T10 shows segmental intercostal arteries arising from the
lower thoracic aorta. The artery of Adamkiewicz is the dominant segmental feeding vessel to the thoracic cord, supplying the anterior
aspect of the cord via the anterior spinal artery. Adamkiewicz has a characteristic hairpin turn on the cord surface as it first courses
superiorly, then turns inferiorly. (Bottom) Axial graphic shows the anterior and posterior radiculomedullary arteries anastomosing with
the anterior and posterior spinal arteries. Penetrating medullary arteries in the cord are largely end-arteries with few collaterals. The
cord watershed zone is at the central gray matter.

to say, would necessarily startle the reading public with some
explanation so extraordinary that his scientific views would cause a
real hegira to the unexplored fields of psychology. Well, he does
startle us, for to all this he quietly observes: “Recourse was had to
marriage to bring to a stop these disorders of the
Convulsionaires!”[607]
For once des Mousseaux had the best of his enemy: “Marriage, do
you understand this?” he remarks. “Marriage cures them of this
faculty of climbing dead-walls like so many flies, and of speaking
foreign languages. Oh! the curious properties of marriage in those
remarkable days!”
“It should be added,” continues Figuier, “that with the fanatics of
St. Medard, the blows were never administered except during the
convulsive crisis; and that, therefore, as Dr. Calmeil suggests,
meteorism of the abdomen, the state of spasm of the uterus of
women, of the alimentary canal in all cases, the state of contraction,
of erethism, of turgescence of the carneous envelopes of the
muscular coats which protect and cover the abdomen, chest, and
principal vascular masses and the osseous surfaces, may have
singularly contributed toward reducing, and even destroying, the
force of the blows!”
“The astounding resistance that the skin, the areolar tissue, the
surface of the bodies and limbs of the Convulsionaires offered to
things which seem as if they ought to have torn or crushed them, is
of a nature to excite more surprise. Nevertheless, it can be
explained. This resisting force, this insensibility, seems to partake of
the extreme changes in sensibility which can occur in the animal
economy during a time of great exaltation. Anger, fear, in a word,
every passion, provided that it be carried to a paroxysmal point, can
produce this insensibility.”[608]
“Let us remark, besides,” rejoins Dr. Calmeil, quoted by Figuier,
“that for striking upon the bodies of the Convulsionaires use was
made either of massive objects with flat or rounded surfaces, or of
cylindrical and blunt shapes.[609] The action of such physical agents
is not to be compared, in respect to the danger which attaches to it,
with that of cords, supple or flexible instruments, and those having a
sharp edge. In fine, the contact and the shock of the blows produced
upon the Convulsionaires the effect of a salutary shampooing, and
reduced the violence of the tortures of hysteria.”
The reader will please observe that this is not intended as a joke,
but is the sober theory of one of the most eminent of French
physicians, hoary with age and experience, the Director-in-Chief of
the Government Insane Asylum at Charenton. Really, the above
explanation might lead the reader to a strange suspicion. We might
imagine, perhaps, that Dr. Calmeil has kept company with the
patients under his care a few more years than was good for the
healthy action of his own brain.
Besides, when Figuier talks of massive objects, of cylindrical and
blunt shapes, he surely forgets the sharp swords, pointed iron pegs,
and the hatchets, of which he himself gave a graphic description on
page 409 of his first volume. The brother of Elie Marion is shown by
him striking his stomach and abdomen with the sharp point of a
knife, with tremendous force, “his body all the while resisting as if it
were made of iron.”
Arrived at this point, des Mousseaux loses all patience, and
indignantly exclaims:
“Was the learned physician quite awake when writing the above
sentences?... If, perchance, the Drs. Calmeil and Figuier should
seriously maintain their assertions and insist on their theory, we are
ready to answer them as follows: ‘We are perfectly willing to believe
you. But before such a superhuman effort of condescension, will you
not demonstrate to us the truth of your theory in a more practical
manner? Let us, for example, develop in you a violent and terrible
passion; anger—rage if you choose. You shall permit us for a single
moment to be in your sight irritating, rude, and insulting. Of course,
we will be so only at your request and in the interest of science and
your cause. Our duty under the contract will consist in humiliating
and provoking you to the last extremity. Before a public audience,
who shall know nothing of our agreement, but whom you must
satisfy as to your assertions, we will insult you; ... we will tell you that
your writings are an ambuscade to truth, an insult to common sense,
a disgrace which paper only can bear; but which the public should
chastise. We will add that you lie to science, you lie to the ears of the
ignorant and stupid fools gathered around you, open-mouthed, like
the crowd around a peddling quack.... And when, transported beyond
yourself, your face ablaze, and anger tumefying, you shall have
displaced your fluids; when your fury has reached the point of
bursting, we will cause your turgescent muscles to be struck with
powerful blows; your friends shall show us the most insensible
places; we will let a perfect shower, an avalanche of stones fall upon
them ... for so was treated the flesh of the convulsed women whose
appetite for such blows could never be satisfied. But, in order to
procure for you the gratification of a salutary shampooing—as you
deliciously express it—your limbs shall only be pounded with objects
having blunt surfaces and cylindrical shapes, with clubs and sticks
devoid of suppleness, and, if you prefer it, neatly turned in a lathe.”
So liberal is des Mousseaux, so determined to accommodate his
antagonists with every possible chance to prove their theory, that he
offers them the choice to substitute for themselves in the experiment
their wives, mothers, daughters, and sisters, “since,” he says, “you
have remarked that the weaker sex is the strong and resistant sex in
these disconcerting trials.”
Useless to remark that des Mousseaux’s challenge remained
unanswered.

exercise itself in Error, before it dare approach the Truth.”—Magendie.
“La verité que je defends est empreinte sur tous les monuments du passé. Pour
