Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in AISA score
Patients will be followed for the duration of their hospital stay with clinical follow-up out to 2 years. ASIA scores will be correlated with admission DTI findings(Axial Diffusivity).
24 months
Study Arms (1)
Cervical spinal cord injury
Those patients with an acute cervical spinal cord injury evaluated with DTI MRI
