which diagnostic tool is used to measure spinal canal space in cervical myelopathy? ultrasound mri ct scan x - ray

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

X-rays are the standard initial diagnostic tool to measure spinal canal space (like the sagittal diameter) in cervical myelopathy, as they provide clear visualization of bony spinal structures and canal dimensions.
