Abstract

Article is educated to opportunities of a magnetic and resonant and computer tomography in diagnostics of cord compression in patients with trauma of the cervical spine. Described semiotics of spinal cord compression, the technique of the quantitative assessment of canal stenosis and spinal cord compression. The analysis of bone injury with the release of the type of damage, determining the amount of damaged columns of the cervical vertebra. The contribution of damaged spinal elements to compression of the spinal cord is analyzed with the definition of the main compressing factor, which allows choosing the most optimal type of treatment.
