Transverse myelitis has many different causes, often triggered by a variety of viral and bacterial infections (especially those associated with a rash such as measles or chickenpox ). Once the infection subsides, the inflammation in the cord begins.
Transverse Wave.
longitudinal waves travel in the direction parallel to the Surface, which are P waves, and transverse waves travel in the direction perpendicular to the surface, which causes destructive earthquakes. Which are S waves.
Transverse wave, i believe
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.

Transverse Myelitis is the inflammation of the spinal cord.
what does this mean: Mild Myelomalacia consistant with history of transverse myelitis
The symptoms of transverse myelitis are due to damage and/or destruction of the myelin sheath, the fatty white covering of nerve fibers that serves both to insulate the nerve fibers and to speed nervous conduction along them.
The area on the spinal cord affected by transverse myelitis will determine the individual's level of functioning. The higher-up the lesion, the greater the disability.
Yes.

Transverse myelitis often occurs in people who are recovering from a recent viral illness, including chickenpox, herpes simplex, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, influenza, and measles.
Treatment is aimed at calming the immune response that caused the spinal cord injury in the first place. To this end, high doses of intravenous and then oral steroids are the first-line treatments for transverse myelitis.
Medical history, physical examination, brain and spinal cord scans, myelogram, spinal tap, and blood tests are used to rule out other neurological causes of symptoms, such as a tumor. If none of these tests.
I'm not really sure how to answer this question. I have had Transverse Myelitis, and I was fortunate enough not to be paralyzed because of it. My TM was treated so my spinal cord wasn't swollen, but I'll still carry the diagnoses with me for the rest of my life, and I still have residual effects, like a hand tremor. I suppose the answer would be no, because it can't be cured, but it can be treated. When there is a cure for TM, I'll be the first one to get it.
The chances of this are very very very slim, but it is possible. There is a blood test you can get that will tell you if you are likely to get it again.
Myelitis is a disease involving inflammation of spinal cord,which disrupts central Nervous System(CNS) function linking the brain and limbs.The main caused of Myelitis are as follows:Infectious mononucleosis(Pfeiffer's disease or kissing disease)Polio virus is a cause of poliomyelitisMany cases of measles are also involved to cause myelitisHerpes simplex, Epstein barr virus(EBV)
