Feasibility of T2 Mapping and Magnetic Transfer Ratio for Diagnosis of Intervertebral Disc Degeneration at the Cervicothoracic Junction: A Pilot Study

Figure 2

T2 relaxation time values and MTR values at different segmental levels. (a) No significant difference of the T2 relaxation time values at different levels was detected (P = 0.25, by one-way ANOVA). (b) MTR values of three anatomical levels showed no significant difference (P = 0.49, by one-way ANOVA).
