Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Correlation between DTI Parameters (FA, ADC Correlat) an the shifting of ISNCSCI protocol sensory scores (LT, PP) at the time points very acute (day 1-15), acute I (day 16-40), acute II (day 70-98) and chronic (day 300-400).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Correlation between DTI parameters (FA, ADC correlate) and the changes in the protocol with ISNCSCI Total Motor Score, Upper Extremities Motor Score (UEMS), Lower Extremities Motor Score (LEMS), and ASIA Impairment Scale (AIS) at the time points very acute (day 1-15), acute I (day 16-40), acute II (day 70-98) and chronic (day 300-400).
