Spinal metastases from a breast carcinoma in a 74-year-old woman prior to (A–C) and after radiation therapy (D–F). Sagittal T1-weighted, STIR and transversal T2-weighted MR images of the spine show pathological vertebral fractures, tumor-conditioned spinal canal stenosis and compression of the spinal cord at the Th11 level. After treatment, the cross-sectional area of the spinal canal is improved significantly despite fracture progression at Th11 and increased kyphosis.
