                Authors' recommendations:
                We did not identify any evidence that assessed the diagnostic impact or clinical utility of positional magnetic resonance imaging (pMRI) in the assessment of craniovertebral or spinal abnormalities among people with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome relative to currently available diagnostic modalities.
We did not identify any evidence that assessed the diagnostic impact or clinical utility of pMRI in the assessment of major craniovertebral or cervical spine abnormalities2 among symptomatic people relative to currently available diagnostic modalities.
