Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Trunk Musculature and Intervertebral Discs in Patients with Spinal Cord Injury with Thoracolumbar Vertebral Fractures: A Prospective Study

Abstract: This study is a prospective clinical study. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the characteristics of trunk musculature and intervertebral discs by using magnetic resonance imaging in patients with spinal cord injuries (SCIs) with thoracic and lumbar fractures. Overview of Literature: Muscle atrophy is an immediate consequence of SCI and is associated with secondary complications. At present, there are limited clinical data on muscle and disc responses to fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. Methods: … Show more

“…In pathological conditions, MRI may also show a high signal in muscles in case of vascular diseases such as deep vein thrombosis (64), sickle cell crisis (65), and muscle infarction in diabetic patients (66, 67). Intrinsic and extrinsic traumata are frequently associated with muscle edema (68). In particular, intense muscle effort may induce a Delayed Onset Muscular Soreness (DOMS), with muscular edema and hypertrophy on MRI (Figure 3).…”
