Injury Morphology (on CT)

0 — No abnormality+01 — Compression (compression fracture, burst fracture)+12 — Burst (greater than compression pattern)+23 — Distraction (facet perch, hyperextension)+34 — Rotation/translation (bilateral facet dislocation, teardrop fracture, advanced stage injuries)+4

Discoligamentous Complex (DLC) Status (on MRI)

0 — Intact+01 — Indeterminate (increased signal, isolated disc space height loss)+12 — Disrupted (facet perch, frank dislocation, widened disc space on MRI)+2

Neurological Status

0 — Intact (no neurological deficits)+01 — Root injury only (single nerve root deficit, radiculopathy)+12 — Complete spinal cord injury (ASIA A — no motor or sensory below injury level)+23 — Incomplete spinal cord injury (ASIA B, C, or D — any preserved function below injury)+34 — Continuous cord compression in setting of neuro deficit (+1 modifier applied in addition to neuro score)+1
