abstract in English:	The latest advances in spine imaging are discussed, focusing on new developments in CT and MRI techniques. The aim of contemporary imaging of the spine is to provide very precise assessment of pathological lesions to enable optimal treatment planning and follow-up. The modern multidetector CT units allow a detailed evaluation of the bony structures of the spine and the monitoring of surgical treatment. A modern generation of MRI equipment allows for precise localization of spinal lesions before the surgical procedure. New MRI techniques, especially diffusion tensor imaging, open new possibilities for advanced diagnosis and follow-up of diseases of the spine. The possibilities of the new CT and MR techniques in particular pathological lesions of the spine are presented.
