The aim of this study was to provide a basis of knowledge of the anatomy of the venous plexuses in the lumbar spine both in anatomical slices and in MR images in order to help the analysis of these structures in MR images of living subjects. Four fresh cadaveric lumbar spines were studied after the injection of coloured gelatin mixed with gadolinium. The specimens were injected by an intraosseous technique. Axial and sagittal fat-saturated T1-weighted MR images were performed on the specimens. Thereafter, specimens were frozen and cut into 5-mm thick slices, three in the axial plane and one in the sagittal plane. All the components of the internal and external venous plexuses were identified on the MR images in correlation with the corresponding anatomic sections. The MR anatomy of the venous system of the lumbar spine is important as it has been implicated in many pathophysiological mechanisms and as it may also cause pitfalls in MR imaging.
