Metal Artifacts in Postoperative Spine MRI: Strategies and Limitations

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The aging population has led to a rise in spinal surgeries, making postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) crucial for evaluating recurrent back pain [1,2].However, the presence of metal implants often leads to substantial image degradation due to susceptibility-induced artifacts [2,3].This review aims to discuss the overall aspects of metal artifacts in postoperative spine MRI, including current strategies for reducing metal arti-
