WHAT DOES MYELOGRAM MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Myelography

Myelography is a type of radiographic examination that uses a contrast medium to detect pathology of the spinal cord, including the location of a spinal cord injury, cysts, and tumors. The procedure often involves injection of contrast medium into the cervical or lumbar spine, followed by several X-ray projections. A myelogram may help to find the cause of pain not found by an MRI or CT. Myelography has been largely replaced by the use of CT and MRI scans.

Definition of myelogram in the English dictionary

The definition of myelogram in the dictionary is an X-ray of the spinal cord, after injection with a radio-opaque medium.
