What is the anatomy of the spinal cord? The human spinal cord is a cylindrical structure of nerve tissue that is protected by the spinal column and composed of uniformly organized white and grey ...

The spinal cord connects the brain to peripheral systems. Yet its integration with cerebral networks remains a key neuroscience question. Capturing structural and functional central nervous system ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) may cause structural alterations in brain due to pathophysiological processes, but the effects of SCI treatment on brain have rarely been reported. Here, voxel-based ...

Researchers at Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University and Johns Hopkins University have identified genetic mutations that may explain why some people develop a spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ...

A tethered spinal cord cannot move freely in the spinal canal because it is attached to tissues around the spine. The condition is often seen in infants, leading to pain and nerve damage that worsen ...

A study linked spontaneous spinal CSF leaks to genetic variants that weaken connective tissue around the spinal cord, ...

Your spinal cord needs a steady blood supply to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the tissues. This blood helps the spinal cord cells send nerve impulses to the rest of your body. The impulses are ...
