Short Myelitis Lesions in Aquaporin-4-IgG-Positive Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders
JAMA Neurol 72:81-87, Flanagan, E.P.,et al, 2015
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Short transverse myelitis is not uncommon in NMOSD and, when it is present, delays diagnosis and treatment. Clinical and radiological characteristics identified in this study may help select patients with STM who are at the highest risk for an NMOSD. Short transverse myelitis does not exclude consideration of AQP4-IgG testing or NMOSD diagnosis.
