Advancing imaging technologies for patients with spinal pain : with a focus on whiplash injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Radiological observations of soft-tissue changes that may relate to clinical symptoms in patients with traumatic and non-traumatic spinal disorders are highly controversial. Studies are often of poor quality and findings are inconsistent.

Clinical, Cytologic, Histopathologic, and Diagnostic Imaging of a Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor in the Renal Pelvis of a Border Collie Dog

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 12‐year‐old female spayed Border Collie dog was presented for evaluation of 6 months of intermittent hematuria and weight loss. A highly vascularized right renal mass deforming the renal architecture and paraneoplastic hypertrophic osteopathy were found. Cytologic evaluation of the mass obtained by fine‐needle aspiration guided by ultrasound

Dynamic Compression of the Spinal Cord by Paraspinal Muscles following Cervical Laminectomy: Diagnosis Using Flexion-Extension MRI

open access: yesCase Reports in Radiology, 2015
Introduction. Flexion-extension, or kinematic, MRI has been used to identify dynamic spondylotic spinal cord compression not seen with traditional static MRI.

Automated assessment of paraspinal muscle fat composition based on the segmentation of chemical shift encoding-based water/fat-separated images

open access: yesEuropean Radiology Experimental, 2018
Proton-density fat fraction (PDFF) of the paraspinal muscles, derived from chemical shift encoding-based water-fat magnetic resonance imaging, has emerged as an important surrogate biomarker in individuals with intervertebral disc disease, osteoporosis ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Metastatic Spine Disease Alters Vertebral Load‐To‐Strength Ratios in Cancer Patients Compared to Healthy Individuals

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study investigated the effect of spinal bone metastasis (BM) on the biomechanical environment of the spine through estimates of load, strength, and the load‐to‐strength ratio (LSR). Our study suggests that task‐specific differences related to cancer, lesion type, and vertebral location differentially affect the biomechanical environment of the ...

Myositis Ossificans Presenting as a Tumor of the Cervical Paraspinal Muscles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
: Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign heterotopic bone formation within muscle or soft tissue that is predominantly initiated by trauma. The diagnostic challenge is to distinguish it from bone and soft tissue malignancies. The most common location of MO

Necrotizing fasciitis of the paraspinous muscles.

open access: yesThe western journal of emergency medicine, 2010
Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rare and lethal soft tissue infection that requires urgent surgical intervention. It is most often found in the extremities occurring with precipitating trauma or in immunocompromised states. Signs and symptoms are often vague or missing making early diagnosis very difficult.
