We outline the key clinical and radiographic features that enable spinal cord infarction to be differentiated from transverse myelitis. Prognosis depends on many factors such as extent and type of injury, level of the cord affected, and age at the time of spinal cord infarction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
