Core Tip	This prospective study highlights the prognostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers, particularly tissue bridges, in acute spinal cord injury (SCI). Quantitative MRI parameters, especially midsagittal tissue bridge dimensions assessed at 1 and 6 months, positively correlated with motor and sensory recovery. Conversely, greater spinal canal compromise and lesion size predicted poorer outcomes. These findings underscore the utility of early MRI-based assessment in predicting neurological recovery and guiding management in traumatic SCI.
