Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spine after injury. T1-weighted MRI (a) shows normalized signal intensities of the spinal cord. T2-weighted (b) and fat-suppressed MRI sequences (c) show a high-signal lesion in the spinal cord adjacent to the T11 vertebra. A coronal image (d) shows the presence of a butterfly vertebra at the T11 level. There was no signal change in the vertebral bodies or intervertebral discs
