Sagittal Image of an MRI
- Sagittal images are taken from a side view of the spine
- These images look for disk desiccation, which is dried up water inside of the spinal disks
- Sagittal images look for any cord compression, because disks should be nicely arranged within the vertebrae
- These images also search for vertebrae that are out of place to determine the seriousness of an injury
