How is a ct cisternogram done? i'm having done with a full spine ct myelogram
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is a CT myelogram: except that you are tilted feet up/head down so that gravity allows the contrast to get into the brain cisterns from the spinal thecal sac. The injection is the same. So, it is a CT myelogram with the addition of an extra manuever and an extra scan.
