Better Cervical Imaging With Digital Tomosynthesis?

Digital tomosynthesis (DTS), a technology widely employed for breast imaging, is demonstrating promising diagnostic potential in spinal applications—specifically, to evaluate cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). A recent study published in the European Spine Journal highlights DTS as a reliable imaging modality for assessing cervicothoracic sagittal alignment and identifying structural changes associated with CSM.
