age, at onset; level, of injury; time, since injury/onset given in months; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging, T1-weighted image sequence; AIS Grade, according to ASIA—American Spinal Injury Association; level, neurological level (sensory symptoms below this level); MPR, multi-planar reconstructed; FFE, fast field echo; TFE, turbo field echo; Sag, saggital.
aNo AIS grade determined; patients used a wheelchair and were unable to walk but could use their arms; preserved sensory function in arms and legs.
bNo AIS grade was determined; rating was done post hoc based on detailed information from diagnostic documentation.
