Spinal cord diseases in general

This is just a sample
Spinal cord diseases comprise a heterogeneous category of conditions that result from damage or dysfunction of the spinal cord. The conditions can be infectious, inflammatory or vascular with their impact on the meninges and their surrounding spaces. Most of the diseases lead to paralysis since the spinal cord serves the primary function of ensuring muscle function in various effector organs by transmitting impulses from the brain. Some of the diseases include multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), lupus, spinal Bifida, Spinal stenosis, syringomyelia (SM) and transverse myelitis. Multiple sclerosis damages the insulating cover of the nerve cells, the myelin. As a result, the communication system in the nerves disrupts.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) overview and background IN GENERAL BRIEFLY and focus on lumber spine
Why lumbar spine in particular because it is the place of neuropathic pain.

pharmacologic, histologic and immunohistochemical methods

Multiple Sclerosis of spinal cord
MS of the spinal cord is a demyelinating disease that affects the spinal cord. Most patients who have MS experience it in the spinal cord. Notably, the cervical spinal cord is more likely to be involved than the lower areas (Hendrix, et.al., 2015 p.93). MS of the spinal cord normally exhibits >= 1 foci of increased signal on T2- weighted images with or without a decrease in the signal in the spinal cord on T1-weighted images. In the earlier stages, the images show cord edema and swelling. Later on, the disease imaging reveals cord atrophy.
