High-resolution MRI of the cervical spinal cord is important to provide accurate diagnosis and pathological assessment of injuries. MEDIC (Multiple Echo Data Image Combination) sequence appears promising for use in clinical imaging, however the comparison in the performance of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) MEDIC sequences for spinal cord imaging has not been reported. This study aims to compare axial 2D and 3D MEDIC sequence for the visualization of the grey matter (GM) and white matter (WM) of the human cervical spinal cord.
