Fig 8. New C6–7 lesion underlying resection site is revealed in a 65-year-old man with history of laryngectomy. Needle placement was performed using FISP guidance (2 s/image), with turbo SE imaging to confirm final placement prior to tissue sampling. Turbo SE T1-weighted axial (A) and oblique coronal (B) images (680/24/3 [TR/TE/NSA], 106 s scanning time for 3 images) used to confirm 18-gauge Menghini cutting needle placement. The needle (arrowheads) can be noted in disk space away from spinal canal or vertebral arteries. Needle was placed through anterior scalene muscle to avoid phrenic nerve and brachial plexus, and was kept anterior to the adjacent vertebral artery. Final diagnosis was fungal osteomyelitis
