Of a total of 580 patients suffering from expanding spinal disease, 15 cases of intramedullary lesions were dealt with by the use of the CO, laser. Sharp cutting and precisely controlled depth effect are the advantages that make the CO2 laser very useful for surgery within the spinal cord. In tumors

The influence of clinical and treatment factors on the outcome of children with primary intramedullary spinal cord tumors (PST) was evaluated by reviewing the records of 26 children diagnosed during the 15-year period 1970-1984. Five-year survival was 39%, but 5-year event-free survival (EFS) was on
## Abstract The feasibility of performing highβresolution in vivo MRI on mouse spinal cord (SC) at 9.4 T magnetic field strength is demonstrated. The MR properties of the cord tissue were measured and the characteristics of water diffusion in the SC were quantified. The data indicate that the diffe
Intramedullary enterogenous cysts of the cervical spinal cord are rare. We report a case of symptomatic recurrence of this type of cyst 8 years following its original surgical treatment.
## Abstract A 2.0βT small animal imager equipped with 3 G/cm imaging gradient coils was used to obtain images of __en bloc__ segments of the vertebral column containing the rat spinal cord and of a cadaveric human spinal cord. These images demonstrate the applicability of MR microβimaging technique
