Further studies on histamine in spinal cord injury and post traumatic hyperemia.

Using the hydrogen clearance method, focal spinal cord blood flow was measured in the lateral funiculus of Rhesus monkeys traumatized with a 600 gm cm injury to T10, pretreated with either chlorpheniramine or metiamide. The blood flow in the chlropheniramine treated animals either rose slightly or remained in the normal range. That in the metiamide treated animals remained in the normal range at all times in all animals. On the basis of these results we can further define the previously observed post traumatic lateral white matter hyperemia as mainly an H2 histamine related phenomenon.

MR imaging of thoracic disk herniations.

Magnetic resonance (MR) is of value in imaging intervertebral disk disease. We present the MR findings in two patients with thoracic disk herniations who required surgical intervention. The advantages of MR over CT myelography are ease of obtaining sagittal sections, rapid assessment of the entire thoracic spine, and a high rate of patient acceptance related to the noninvasive nature of MR and lack of morbidity and complications. For these reasons, we currently rely, almost exclusively, on MR for evaluating thoracic disk disease.
