• Fig SP 12-1 Neurofibroma. Smooth widening
(arrows) due to the contiguous mass, without
evidence of bone destruction.
• Fig SP 12-2 Tortuous vertebral artery. (A)
Frontal tomogram shows the enlarged
foramen (arrows). (B) Arteriogram shows the
tortuous vertebral artery (arrow) entering the
enlarged foramen.
• Fig SP 12-3 Traumatic avulsion of nerve roots.
Note the pouch-like appearance of the
blunted nerve roots that extend into the
cervical foramina.
