The main diagnosis of cervical disease may be due to neurological signs, but special contrast studies are often necessary. Of these special studies, myelography is the most valuable X-ray diagnostic technique, however this technique has several dangers. Therefore, peridurography was adopted in order to reduce them.The results were as follows.1. The X-ray findings in myelopathy reveal posterior protrusion of anterior contrast medium, stenosis, diffuse defect and decrease of A-P diameter.2. In radiculopathy, oblique and A-P X-ray findings reveal unclear nerve root and partial defect.3. The rate of coincidence between symptomes and their pain responses is 90.6%.
