Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Participants will receive an MRI with a custom-built MRI coil for each participant. The purpose is to find out whether this custom-built MRI coil can help doctors see the different parts of the spine as well as or better than they can with standard CT myelograms.
