CSM is a chronic progressive disorder of spinal cord with
a relatively
ill-defined onset of pathogenesis. This study investigated the potential of preoperative blood supply
condition measured by DSC MRI with a nonparametric model in prediction of
postoperative prognosis for patients with CSM
Fig 3. t-test results of 5 parameters between poor & good recovery
groups. Results show that patients in poor-recovery group have significant
lower rEnhance, slope1, but possess increased FWHM
