From: Late normal tissue response in the rat spinal cord after carbon ion irradiation
Representative MR-images for the biological endpoint paresis grade II after carbon ion (12C–ion) and photon irradiation compared to an untreated control. The symptomatic animals show an edema (white arrowheads) and canalis centralis dilatation (red arrowhead) in the T2-weighted images as well as contrast agent (CA) accumulation in the T1-weighted images (lowest row, white asterisks)
