- CT scan (if MRI contraindicated—shows bony changes, canal diameter)
- X-rays (standing—shows alignment, spondylolisthesis, bone spurs, overall structure but doesn't show soft tissue or nerves)
- EMG/Nerve conduction studies (if neurological symptoms—differentiates spinal stenosis from peripheral neuropathy)
