Diffusion Tensor Imaging in a Large Longitudinal Series of Patients With Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy Correlated With Long-Term Functional Outcome [PDF]
BACKGROUND Fractional anisotropy (FA) of the high cervical cord correlates with upper limb function in acute cervical cord injury. We investigated the correlation between preoperative FA at the level of maximal compression and functional recovery in a ...

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning
Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

Wobbler Syndrome in Horses [PDF]
Wobbler Syndrome refers to a number of disease states in the horse. The most common is termed cervical vertebral malformation (CVM) and is characterized by malformation or compression of the spinal cord which leads to spasticity, ataxia, and ...

Abstract Computed tomography (CT) enables rapid imaging of large‐scale studies of bone, but those datasets typically require manual segmentation, which is time‐consuming and prone to error. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) offer an automated solution, achieving superior performance on image data.

Convolutional Deep Operator Networks for Learning Nonlinear Focused Ultrasound Wave Propagation in Heterogeneous Spinal Cord Anatomy [PDF]
Focused ultrasound (FUS) therapy is a promising tool for optimally targeted treatment of spinal cord injuries (SCI), offering submillimeter precision to enhance blood flow at injury sites while minimizing impact on surrounding tissues. However, its efficacy is highly sensitive to the placement of the ultrasound source, as the spinal cord's complex ...

Non-Invasive Temporal Interference Electrical Stimulation for Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation: A Simulation Study [PDF]
Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation remains a major clinical challenge, with limited treatment options for functional recovery. Temporal interference (TI) electrical stimulation has emerged as a promising non-invasive neuromodulation technique capable of delivering deep and targeted stimulation.
