POSSIBILITIES FOR RADIODIAGNOSIS OF TUBERCULOUS SPONDYLITIS

Abstract

The presented case illustrates the possibilities of complex radiodiagnosis in a patient with tuberculous spondylitis. The specific features of displaying a spinal tuberculous lesion during X-ray study, tomosynthesis, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are described. A rational algorithm for the examination and treatment of patients with this disease is proposed, by comparing the clinical manifestations of spinal tuberculous lesion and the results of its radiological studies.
