Does myelography cause headache?

Why is CT myelography used to diagnose perineural cysts?
CT myelography (a test in which dye is injected into the spine) may demonstrate the cerebrospinal fluid flow between the spinal subarachnoid area and the cyst.
What are some good books about myelography?
Some good books about myelography include "Myelography" by J.M. Taveras and R.M. Woodcock, "Neuroradiology: A Core Review" by Varand Ghazikhanian and "Neuroimaging: Anatomy Meets Function" by Johnathan D. Sprinkle.

Myelography is a radiographic study of the spinal cord after the injection of a contrast medium?
Myelography involves injecting a contrast dye into the spinal canal, which helps visualize the spinal cord, nerve roots, and surrounding structures on x-ray images. It is often used to diagnose spinal cord compression, herniated discs, and other spinal abnormalities that may not be clearly seen on traditional x-rays or other imaging studies.
Can arthritic bony growths be diagnosed using a myelography?
No, myelography is a diagnostic procedure used to visualize the spinal cord and surrounding structures using contrast dye and X-rays. It is not typically used to diagnose arthritic bony growths, which are usually identified through imaging techniques like X-rays, CT scans, or MRI.
Can narrowing of the spinal canal be diagnosed using a myelography?
Yes
What risks are involved with myelography?
Headache is a common complication of myelography. It may begin several hours to several days after the examination. The cause is thought to be changes in cerebrospinal fluid pressure, not a reaction to the dye.
Which of the diagnostic procedures is useful in idetifying a herniated nucles pulposus?
