[Abstract] Cervical spondylosis myelopathy (CSM) can influence the nerve system by an insidious onset. During the later period, nerve injury is irreversible. Early diagnosis and treatment are meant for saving nerve function and improving quality of life. A routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has low-sensitivity. Thus, multi-parameter MRI technologies are brought forward for CSM. This review introduces multi-parameter MRI technologies which are applied to CSM.
