Spinal angiography may be used in a variety of scenarios to better understand the architecture of vascular spinal lesions and facilitate endovascular intervention. While its application in both adult and pediatric pathology is limited to select cases, spinal angiography remains a key diagnostic procedure when approaching vascular lesions or tumors of the spine, assessing for etiology of spinal cord infarcts, and in the evaluation of unexplained hemorrhage in the spinal canal.
