Study Summary

This research study is evaluating suitability of a delayed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in management of spine tumors. Currently the standard of care is obtaining an MRI scan in the early postoperative period (within 72 hours after surgery). The purpose of this study is to see if delayed MRI (2 to 3 weeks after surgery) is similar in quality to the earlier MRI. In this study patients will undergo 2 MRIs after the surgery instead of one MRI. Patients will have one MRI about 3 days after the surgery and one MRI about 2-3 weeks after surgery.

Primary Outcome

Assess if Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) at 2 to 3 weeks after surgery (aka: later imaging) leads to the same clinical decisions and has the same probability of being chosen by a physician for guiding the subsequent management of the patient, compared with immediately postoperative MRI (within 72 hours, aka: early imaging).
