Video Summary
The video features Sagar Wagle, a musculoskeletal radiology fellow at Stanford University, discussing cases of young athletes with low back pain and spinal fractures. He explores the limitations of spine radiographs in detecting these fractures, describing the "Scotty dog" appearance used in diagnosing parse fractures. He compares various imaging techniques: SPECT, CT, and MRI. MRI is sensitive for acute fractures due to bone marrow edema but less so for old fractures, where CT's finer slice thickness is advantageous. He explains conditions such as spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis, highlighting their causes and imaging characteristics.
