Quantitative MRI Signal Changes of the Spinal Cord as Predictors of Suboptimal Surgical Outcomes in Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy. [PDF]
Ninety‐four patients diagnosed with increased signal intensity (ISI) on T2‐weighted MRI and treated with anterior cervical decompression for DCM between January 2021 and June 2023 were reviewed, Higher signal change ratio (SCR), the presence of snake‐eye appearance (SEA), and long symptoms predict poor DCM outcomes, highlighting the need for early ...

Equivalent stress cloud maps of cervical spine flexion movement after four anterior approach methods. (a) VBSP‐S method. (b) AVBSP‐C method. (c) APSP‐S method. (d) APSP‐C method. ACCF biomechanics depend on fixation (AVBSP/APSP) and mesh shape (linear/curved). Adjacent disc sensitivity varies. Fixation choice affects titanium mesh stress.
