Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the imaging investigation of choice in vertebral collapse. In this study, we considered various MRI features and appearance based on morphological features, signal intensity, contrast enhancement characteristics, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) of various types of non-traumatic vertebral collapse for differentiating benign from malignant causes and its role in differentiating cases of infectious causes of vertebral collapse from malignant causes.
