Blood flow in the lateral funiculus of the rabbit thoracic spinal cord was studied after mild experimental spinal cord injury, using the hydrogen clearance technique. The mild Injury was produced with the compressing the cord with a force of 50gm for 30 seconds. Spinal cord blood flow was significantly decreased at 6 hours after injury. (30% reduced P<0.05).With pathological specimen, it has been confirmed in the model that cord compressing injury produced posttraumatic ischemia in the white matter at 6 hours after injury.
