Single-shot turbo spin-echo sequences are dense T2-weighted sequences that are well suited for evaluating the subarachnoid space. In T2-weighted fast spin-echo sequences routinely used in spinal magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, the subarachnoid space is poorly distinguished from the surrounding epidural fat, which may lead to the under detection of...
