Spinal Cord Compression

open access: yesCurrent Treatment Options in Neurology, 2012
Malignant epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC) remains a common neuro-oncologic emergency with high associated morbidity. Despite widespread availability of MRI, the diagnosis frequently goes unmade until myelopathy supervenes, which is unfortunate because the strongest predictor of neurologic outcome with treatment is the neurologic status when ...

A comparison of radiological descriptions of spinal cord compression with quantitative measures, and their role in non-specialist clinical management.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
IntroductionMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is gold-standard for investigating Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy (DCM), a disabling disease triggered by compression of the spinal cord following degenerative changes of adjacent structures.

Spinal Cord Compression

open access: yes, 2013
The spinal cord is a thin tube of nerves which travels from the brain down through the bones of the back (vertebrae). These nerves allow you to move your arms and legs, allow you to have reflexes and also to sense things such as the need to go to the ...

A deep learning model for detection of cervical spinal cord compression in MRI scans

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) evidence of spinal cord compression plays a central role in the diagnosis of degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). There is growing recognition that deep learning models may assist in addressing the increasing volume of

Spinal Cord Ischemia Related to Disc Herniation:Case Report and a Review of the Literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Symptoms of spinal cord ischemia can mimic myelopathy due to spinal cord compression in the acute phase. Thoracic disc herniation with limited spinal cord compression but rapid progression of neurological symptoms causes a clinical dilemma as to whether ...

Effects of cervical rotatory manipulation on the cervical spinal cord complex with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament in the vertebral canal: A finite element study

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Background: There are few studies focusing on biomechanism of spinal cord injury according to the ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) during cervical rotatory manipulation (CRM).

Towards contrast-agnostic soft segmentation of the spinal cord [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Spinal cord segmentation is clinically relevant and is notably used to compute spinal cord cross-sectional area (CSA) for the diagnosis and monitoring of cord compression or neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis. While several semi and automatic methods exist, one key limitation remains: the segmentation depends on the MRI contrast ...

Tetraplegic spinal cord injury as a presentation of multiple myeloma: A case report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical Message Spinal cord injury is a devastating complication of cancers that exert physical compression on the spinal cord. Multiple myeloma is known predominantly as a condition that involves bony structures and can manifest with complications ...
