A non-invasive marker for spinal cord injury damage

• [11C]-UCB-J PET/CT imaging is a non-invasive marker for SV2A loss following spinal cord injury.

• SV2A PET may provide an objective measure of spinal cord injury, and thus a valuable tool to evaluate novel therapeutics

SV2A PET imaging is a non-invasive marker for the detection of spinal damage in experimental models of spinal cord injury
