It is also a term used for a tiny channel inside the spinal cord, but in routine spine care it usually means the spinal canal. Clinicians discuss the Central canal when describing spinal stenosis, disc problems, trauma, tumors, or infection. It is frequently referenced in MRI and CT reports of the neck (cervical), mid-back (thoracic), and low back (lumbar)."}
