Abstract
There are many vascular disorders that can affect the spinal cord, and their prevalence and etiology are highly influenced by age, sex, and risk factors. This article reviews the embryology and anatomy of the spinal cord, as well as several vascular conditions, describing their clinical and imaging presentation, emphasizing the different imaging modalities’ contributions to increasing specificity and better defining the most appropriate therapy strategy for improving the patient's prognosis.
