Degeneration of the Posterior Columns of the Spinal Cord:Postmortem MRI and Histopathology J Comput Assist Tomogr 16:865-867, Okumura,R.,et al, 1992 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Postmortem MR images of two cases of posterior column degeneration were correlated with histopathological findings.The abnormal MR findings were volume loss and high signal intensity of the posterior columns associated with mild deformity of the dorsal surface of the soinal cord,corresponding to tract degeneration on histopathological examination.These results strongly suggest that further development of MR technique will permit in vivo detection of posterior column degeneration.
