Diffusion Tensor Imaging in a Large Longitudinal Series of Patients With Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy Correlated With Long-Term Functional Outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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 ...

Injecting nerves with radiological contrast as a novel method of studying the peripheral nervous system

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We present a method of injecting peripheral nerves with radiopaque contrast and subsequent CT scanning that produces excellent 3D models of the nerves, leaving the specimens intact and ready for further analysis (e.g., for micro‐CT or histology). Abstract The peripheral nervous system has been the subject of various studies on topics ranging from the ...

The Effect of Unilateral Laminotomy Decompression in the Prevention of Adjacent Spinal Canal Stenosis During Lumbar Fusion

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Lumbar fusion can cause adjacent vertebral diseases, about 50% of which is spinal stenosis. Our retrospective cohort study demonstrated that concurrent laminotomy decompression of proximal adjacent vertebrae during primary lumbar fusion surgery significantly reduces the incidence of adjacent segment stenosis at 1‐year follow‐up.
