Figure 1Cervical Spine MRI With Compression of the Spinal Cord That Would Be Expected to Cause Cervical Myelopathy^{^a}

Abbreviation: MRI, magnetic resonance imaging.

: ^aSpinal cord compression is shaded red. Ventral decompression and fusion would typically involve removal of the disc that is compressing the spinal cord from the front of the neck (yellow arrow). Dorsal decompression would involve decompression of the spinal cord from the back of the neck (red arrow).
