A member asked:

Can a diagnosis of a cervical bulging disc be made by a non contrast ct scan?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Cervical spondylosis: A non contrast ct scan can resolve a bulging disc in a thin person. A MRI or myelogram ct scan provides better resolution of the pathology.

Yes but...: A non-contrast ct is horribly inferior to an mri, but yes, it is still possible.
