Consistent with the findings of this study, a decreasing trend in FA, RA, and AD values toward the posterior part of the cervical spinal cord has been reported in some human studies [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ].

The sentences
In summary, an initial understanding of dog DTI parameters was described in normal cervical and upper thoracic spinal cords, which showed a clear trend of decreased FA, RA, and AD in the caudal direction.
This result is different from that reported in the dogs in this study where AD showed a decreasing trend toward the posterior cervical spinal cord and an increasing trend toward the upper thoracic spinal cord.
