Overview

MRI may be helpful in establishing the etiology of respiratory failure, in particular if the cause is due to a pathology of the neck, central or peripheral nervous system. MRI may suggest that stroke, tumor, spinal cord injury and/or complete spinal transection are the cause of respiratory failure. Findings on MRI may include embolism, thrombosis, and haemorrhage.

MRI

  • MRI may be helpful in establishing the etiology of respiratory failure, in particular if the cause is due to a pathology of the neck, central or peripheral nervous system.[1]
  • Findings may suggest that stroke, tumor, and/or complete spinal transection are the cause of respiratory failure.
  • Findings on MRI may include:
    • Embolism
    • Thrombosis
    • Haemorrhage
