BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Acute markers of spinal cord injury are essential for both
diagnostic and prognostic purposes. The goal of this study was to assess the relationship …

Objective Several studies have looked for an association between radiologic findings and
neurologic outcome after cervical trauma. In the current literature, there is a paucity of …

Purpose: To prospectively evaluate whether quantitative and qualitative magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging assessments after spinal cord injury (SCI) correlate with patient …

Biomarkers of acute human spinal cord injury (SCI) could provide a more objective measure
of spinal cord damage and a better predictor of neurological outcome than current …

OBJECT Previous studies that have evaluated the prognostic value of abnormal changes in
signals on T2-weighted MRI scans of an injured spinal cord have focused on the …

Literature examining magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in acute spinal cord injury (SCI)
has focused on cervical SCI. Reproducible systems have been developed for MRI-based …

Study design Retrospective cohort study of 82 patients with cervical traumatic spinal cord
injury (TSCI). Objectives Determine the relevance of preoperative MRI to predict …

Prognostic factors for clinical outcome after spinal cord (SC) injury (SCI) are limited but
important in patient management and education. There is a lack of evidence regarding …

Introduction: The diagnosis and prognosis of traumatic spinal cord injury has historically
relied on clinical examination whereby those presenting with severe injuries were deemed …

Introduction MRI is the established gold standard for imaging acute spinal cord injury (SCI).
Our aim was to identify the prognostic value, in terms of neurological outcome, of extradural …
