Contrast-enhanced lesions on computerised tomography in multiple sclerosis
J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry.
1978 Aug.
Abstract
Two patients are described in whom computerised tomography revealed contrast-enhanced lesions in the early stages of multiple sclerosis. Such lesions may be differentiated from tumours by their transient nature, lack of space-occupying effect, and localisation in the white matter. Contrast enhancement in demyelinating disease is probably related to local breakdown of the blood-brain barrier.
