Perspectives for ERRSM team. Clinical protocol • Provide biomarkers that predict functional recovery • Multi-parametric MRI (DTI, MTR, atrophy, T2*-w) Research protocol • Other myelin-specific sequences • Higher spatial resolution Isolate spinal pathways • Functional MRI.

Perspectives for ERRSM team Clinical protocol • Provide biomarkers that predict functional recovery • Multi-parametric MRI (DTI, MTR, atrophy, T2*-w) Research protocol • Other myelin-specific sequences • Higher spatial resolution Isolate spinal pathways • Functional MRI • Physiological correlates of the H response (Doyon) • Brain fMRI correlates with combined electrophysiological methods of • the nociceptive flexion (RIII) reflex (Rainville) Julien Cohen-Adad
Discussion Correlations • What metric with what clinical/electrophy score? • Understand biophysical properties of MRI metrics and • neuropathology (ex vivo validation?) Practical considerations • Requirements for imaging SCI patients (equipments, …) • Inclusion criteria (level of injury, implants, …) • Multi-centric study (match imaging protocol) Julien Cohen-Adad
TODO Matching protocol in Quebec City • Rick & Julien iront à Québec fin juin pour s’assurer que le protocole d’imagerie est similaire à celui de l’UNF Julien Cohen-Adad
