Precision Exams
Prime Radiology
Center
Advanced equipment and radiologists who see you in person mean faster, more accurate exams — same-day scan, same-day reading and same-day explanation of your results.
Detailed Assessment of Fractures
and Degenerative Changes
Spine Imaging (MRI / CT)
Prime Radiology uses the latest 128-channel, 443-slice CT and MRI systems to evaluate the health of your spine precisely. Spine MRI analyzes spinal disc herniation (in the lower back or neck), spinal stenosis and nerve compression in detail, while 128-channel, 443-slice CT evaluates fractures, degenerative changes, spondylolisthesis (a vertebra slipping forward or backward) and osteoporotic compression fractures in fine detail.
Precise diagnosis and fast results —
trusted spine imaging for your health and peace of mind.
Types of Spine Imaging
With MRI and CT, Prime Radiology can accurately identify
conditions that affect the spine.
Spine MRI
Spine MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
- The most precise test for evaluating spinal disc herniation (herniated disc), spinal stenosis, spinal cord tumors, myelitis and nerve compression.
- Shows soft tissue — discs, nerves, ligaments and muscles — clearly without radiation exposure.
- When needed, a whole-spine MRI can check the entire spine, from the neck to the lower back, in a single exam.
Recommended for
- Suspected disc
herniation or
spinal stenosis - Back or neck pain
with numbness in
the legs or arms - Suspected spinal
tumor or
inflammatory
disease - Checking nerve
compression after
spine surgery
Spine CT
Spine CT (Computed Tomography)
- Shows the detailed bone structure of the spine (cervical, thoracic and lumbar).
- Useful for diagnosing spinal fractures, arthritis, spinal tumors and ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL).
- Provides more detailed 3D images than X-ray and is the most useful test when a fracture is suspected.
Recommended for
- Suspected
spinal fracture - Suspected spinal
tumor (including
metastases) - Suspected OPLL
or spinal
stenosis - Evaluating the
spine after
surgery

Comparison & Key Features
The spine supports the body and controls movement, and can be affected by a range of conditions,
including disc degeneration, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, osteoporosis and spinal fractures.
