The preoperative T2W MRI, IOUSI and postoperative T2W MRI of midsagittal spinal cord of two cases (case 1: A-C, case 2: D-F). The positions of IOUSI hyperechogenicity were in line with that of preoperative T2W MRI increased signal intensity (ISI). But for the patient (case 1) with relatively low IOUSI hyperechogenicity, the postoperative ISI on T2W MRI was still existed while the patient (case 2) with high IOUSI hyperechogenicity, the postoperative ISI on T2W MRI was disappeared
