## 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
## Abstract An optimization scheme was developed for gradient echo imaging using a halfβbirdcage RF coil at 7 T to obtain maximal contrast between gray and white matter in the spinal cord of rodents. This optimization was combined with microimaging techniques to obtain __in vivo__ pixel sizes of 78
## Abstract Pathological changes were followed longitudinally with in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and behavioral studies in experimental spinal cord injury (SCI). MRIβobserved pathology was correlated with histology. On MRI, the cavitated regions of the injured cord were gradually filled
