Sagittal T2-WI of spinal canal stenosis (a) without and (b) with evidence of RNR a) Sagittal T2-WI of spinal canal stenosis L4/L5 (axial: upper corner left) with no evidence of RNR since the spatial distribution of the cauda nerve roots is not influenced by the stenotic level (white arrow). b) Sagittal T2-WI of spinal canal stenosis L3/L4 (axial: upper corner left) with evidence of serpentine-shaped RNR deflection (white arrows)
