Spinal MRI study seeks to unlock early diagnosis
NCT ID NCT02170155
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study uses advanced MRI scans to look at changes in the spinal cord and fluid around it in people with spinal cord injuries. The goal is to see if these changes relate to a person's symptoms and nerve function. Researchers hope this will lead to earlier diagnosis and better treatments. About 350 adults with cervical spinal cord injury will take part.
