Diffusion Tensor (Magnetic Resonance) Imaging and Tractography in Herniation of the Cervical Spine

NCT00599183 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 12

Last updated 2013-07-31

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This is an investigator-iniated pilot study to determine if MRI with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and tractography will yield useful information in patients suspected of having cervical spine disc herniation to provide imaging confirmation of whether or not disease is progressing and to assess response to treatment (regardless of treatment provided).

Conditions

  • Cervical Spine Herniation
