Previous works have shown that white matter suppressed (WMS) T1 STIR imaging can provide better lesion contrast in spine in multiple sclerosis. In this work we have explored the relevance of this technique in non multiple sclerosis related spinal conditions. The results show that, in these conditions as well, T1 STIR provides better lesion conspicuity.
