Description
Jiangqin Zheng and five co-authors study brain recovery after neck surgery in a 2026 paper. The patients had a spinal cord condition caused by age related neck bone changes, which can also damage a brain hub called the thalamus. The team scanned forty eight patients before surgery and six months after, plus thirty three healthy volunteers.
Two scan methods measured chemical ratios and water movement in the thalamus on both sides. Nerve function was scored before and after surgery with a standard scale. Changes in scan measures were compared with changes in nerve scores. The authors aim to show whether thalamic damage recovers after cord pressure is relieved.
