Diffusion tensor imaging applied in assessment of electric acupuncture treatment of spinal cord injury / 中华神经医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging has been developed to a kind of new imaging technology in recent years;through the nerve tissue diffusion properties of water molecules,it can quantitatively reflect the integrity of white matter fiber tracts and various kinds of pathological changes,thus achieving accurate evaluation of spinal cord injuries at the micro level.In this paper,the technology of magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging in the application of electroacupuncture treatment of spinal cord injuries and research progress are summarized and prospected.
