Abstract

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) allows studying the micro and macro architecture. One of the major challenges in dysraphism is to know the morphologic organization of the spinal cord. In a preliminary work, spinal lipoma was chosen for analyzing the micro-architecture parameters and fiber morphology of the spinal cord by DTI with tractography.
