Figure 3 Enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the cervical spine in axial and sagittal views. (A) Axial enhanced MRI image of the cervical spine, with the red arrow indicating the epidural hematoma at the Th1–2 vertebral level (an abnormal enhanced signal in the epidural region at the Th1–2 vertebral level, suggestive of a hematoma). (B) Sagittal enhanced MRI image of the cervical spine, with the red box and red arrow pointing to the epidural hematoma at the Th1–2 vertebral level (an abnormal enhanced signal distributed along the epidural space at the Th1–2 vertebral level, indicative of a hematoma).
