a–d A 22-year-old male patient hit forcibly by a blunt object on his back. Neurologically, he was ASIA grade C. a Sagittal T2-weighted MR image acquired at 1.5 T shows abnormal spinal cord signal at the level of C4-5 (white arrow). b Fiber tractography image shows partially interrupted white matter tract of cervical spinal cord with attenuated fibers (yellow arrow). c Sagittal color coded ADC map image shows an ADC value at the injury level (1.31) lower than values above (2.52) and below (2.85) the injury level. d sagittal color coded FA map image shows lower FA value at the injury level (0.395) than values above (0.751) and below (0.678) the injury level
