Study Design. An in vivo study to measure rat spinal cord blood flow in real-time at the site of
compression using a newly developed device. Objectives. To evaluate the change in …

Study Design. To better understand the relationships between primary mechanical factors of
spinal cord trauma and secondary mechanisms of injury, this study evaluated regional blood …

✓ Spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) was measured in 24 rhesus monkeys after injury to the
cord produced by the inflatable circumferential extradural cuff technique. Measurement of …

Spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) and motor performance on the inclined plane were measured
up to 9 days after a reversible spinal cord compression injury in 49 Sprague-Dawley rats. A …

Following rabbit spinal cord ischemia we measured histology, neurological outcome and
spinal cord blood flow to investigate relationships between these quantities over a range of …

A decrease in spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) is a known sequela of spinal cord injury. The
radioactive microsphere technique permits repeated measurement of spinal cord blood flow …

Objectives: The evaluation of the spatial spread of ischemia following spinal cord injury
(SCI) is important for planning therapeutic strategies for secondary injury. The purpose of …

Study Design. The current study was designed to determine whether progressive spinal cord
damage during residual compression is caused by low blood flow and ischemia. Objectives …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) produces multiple systemic and metabolic alterations. Although
some systemic alterations could be associated with ischemic organ damage, little is known …

Although surgical decompression is often advocated for acute spinal cord injury, the timing
and efficacy of early treatment have not been clinically proven. Our objectives were to …
