About this trial
This project will study patients with cervical radiculopathy. We will evaluate the combined diagnostic and prognostic value of magnetic resonance neurography (MRN), electrodiagnostic (EDX) studies, and historical and physical clinical elements. Specifically, this project will explore whether these data individually or in combination correlate with response to procedural and non-procedural treatment.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Patients presenting with symptoms compatible with acute or subacute unilateral (one-sided) cervical radiculopathy and signs of clinical weakness
18-60 years old at the time of evaluation
Symptom onset of 2 to 12 weeks leading up to baseline visit
Diagnosis of unilateral cervical radiculopathy, with or without spinal cord compression, based on signs and symptoms, physical exam and supported by MRI findings of radiculopathy (as evidenced by foraminal stenosis/narrowing) based on standard-of-care cervical spine MRI
Disqualifiers
Prior cervical surgery or instrumentation
Those who have had a prior episode of cervical radiculopathy
History of peripheral neuropathy or another acute or chronic neurodegenerative condition
History of stroke, cerebellar disease, or central nervous system disease
