Functional Anatomy of the Spinal Cord

Radiol Clin North Am. 2024 Mar;62(2):263-272. doi: 10.1016/j.rcl.2023.09.001. Epub 2023 Nov 11.ABSTRACTLocalization of lesions in the spinal cord requires knowledge of the functional anatomy of gray and white matter tracts. Using decussation points for white matter tracts can help determine lesion level. Pathologies can affect gray and white matter tracts in distinct ways and pattern recognition can help narrow down the differential diagnosis.PMID:38272619 | DOI:10.1016/j.rcl.2023.09.001
