C Bazan 3rd et al. Neuroradiology. 1990.

Abstract

Radiation induced neoplasms of the spinal cord are rare lesions. This report details the MR evaluation of a patient with radiation induced astrocytoma of the cervical cord. The diagnosis of second primary neoplasm should be considered in patients with prior radiation therapy when MRI demonstrates an intramedullary lesion.
