Quantitative measurement describing the maximum extent of vertebral body cortex that was obscured by metal beam-hardening artifacts in 2 patients. Quantitative measurement describing the maximum extent of vertebral body cortex that was obscured by metal beam-hardening artifacts in 2 patients. The central angle of an angle measurement tool was placed in the middle of the vertebral body, with its rays circumscribing the portions of the vertebral body cortex that were obscured by metal artifacts. The process was repeated for wFBP (A and C) and IMAR (B and D) images. In 1 patient with bilateral screw/rod fixation in the lumbar spine, artifacts from both screws cross at the anterior margin of the vertebral body cortex, resulting in obscuration of a large portion of the anterior cortex (A). There is marked improvement with IMAR in the degree of anterior vertebral body cortical obscuration caused by metal artifacts (B) because only artifacts from the left-sided screw extend to the cortical surface. In another patient with anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (C and D), there is no change in the degree of vertebral body cortical obscuration as measured by the circumscribed angle. A.L.
