NCT ID NCT03296592
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a special type of MRI (called DBSI) can predict how well people recover after surgery for a compressed spinal cord. 71 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy had this MRI before surgery and again 2 years later. Researchers looked for imaging markers that could forecast long-term outcomes, comparing them to healthy volunteers.
