BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Abnormal apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in
injured spinal cord white matter and fibroblast transplants have been shown to correspond …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) in
ex vivo spinal cord white matter, calculated from diffusion weighted MR (DWI) images …

Following spinal cord injury, diffusion MRI (DWI) has been shown to detect injury and
functionally significant neuroprotection following treatment that otherwise would go …

OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to determine if the morphological and functional
changes induced by neural stem cell (NSC) grafts after transplantation into the rodent spinal …

Diffusion tensor imaging is a sensitive way to reflect axonal necrosis and degeneration, glial
cell regeneration and demyelination following spinal cord injury, and to display …

We have implemented a numerical method for calculation of the apparent diffusion
coefficient (ADC) in spinal cord injury, which takes into account the distribution of axon …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Our purpose was to evaluate the effect of fixative on
apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and anisotropy within spinal cord white matter …

Apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) were measured in a rat spinal cord weight‐drop injury
model. After sacrifice, the spinal cords were fixed in situ and excised for MR imaging and …

Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) of the central nervous system can provide more
information concerning cell structure and integrity than conventional MR techniques. The …

We describe the feasibility of using diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DT-MRI)
to study a contusive model of rat spinal cord injury following human stem cell transplantation …
