Alterations in Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) after different severities of SCI. a Representative DTI images after SCI, including B0 images, FA colour map and MD map from rostral to caudal of white matters. b Representative DTI images from control group. c-e Mean values of FA, AD and RD at the VWM of epicenter were analyzed. The values of FA and AD decreased after SCI (6 rats/group, * P < 0.05), and the severe group showed more significant decline in the FA values on day 7 and 14, so do the AD values on day 3 and 7. The RD value showed no significant changes after SCI
