The usefulness of the apparent diffusion coefficient value in diagnosing acute spinal cord ischemia.
The purpose of our study was to assess the usefulness of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value in differentiating between a normal spinal cord and a spinal cord with acute ischemia. Control group of 113 and 8 acute spinal cord ischemia patients were enrolled in this study. The ADC values were measured when diffusion-weighted imaging was first performed after the onset of acute spinal cord ischemia. The mean ADC value each of the control group and acute spinal cord ischemia patients was 0.99 ± 0.19 × 10-3 mm2/s and 0.70 ± 0.15 × 10-3 mm2/s. The mean ADC value in patients with acute spinal cord ischemia was significantly lower than that in patients with a normal spinal cord (P < 0.01). We found the cutoff ADC value (0.86 × 10-3 mm2/s) to be a useful indicator of acute spinal cord ischemia (sensitivity = 100.0%, specificity = 71.7%, AUC = 0.92). In conclusions, it is suggested that the ADC value may be useful in the diagnosis of acute spinal cord ischemia.
