Abstract

Vertebral artery (VA) injury poses a significant risk in cervical spine surgery, necessitating accurate preoperative assessment. This study aims to introduce and validate a novel approach that combines the Fast field echo that resembles a computed tomography using restricted echo spacing (FRACTURE) sequence with Time of Flight (TOF) Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) for comprehensive evaluation of VA courses in the cervical spine.
