3D MRI Tract‐Specific Spinal Cord Lesion Pattern Improves Prediction of Distinct Neurological Recovery

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To distinguish lateralized motor‐ and sensory‐tract damage after acute spinal cord injury (SCI) and explore its predictive power for motor and sensory recovery. Methods Thirty‐five SCI patients (two female) from a multi‐center data set (placebo‐arm of the Nogo‐A‐Inhibition in SCI trial) underwent routine T2‐weighted sagittal MRI ...
