Summary: The authors evaluated the findings of magnetic resonance (MR) in ankylosing spondylitis
(AS) patients in this study from the point of view of various MR sequences contribution
to the diagnosis: spin echo (SE) and turbo spin echo (TSE), combination of gradient
and SE sequence (GraSE) and fat saturation sequence (STIR). Cervical spin was
examined in 10 patients, and lumbar spin in 11 patients. Sequence TSE (T2 weighted
images) was evaluated as the most sensitive method in the determination of morphological
features of soft tissue spinal components, ligaments, discs and medulla. Sequence
STIR was valuable in determination of signal changes in vertebral bodies.
