Abstract

Axial T1-weighted spin-echo MR images have not proved to be effective in identifying normal structures in the jugular foramen. By correlating cryomicrotomic sections and axial T1-weighted gradient recalled echo images, we identified the neural and vascular contents of the jugular foramen. Further work with gradient recalled echo images is needed to determine the signal characteristics of jugular foraminal lesions.
