Fig. 1
MRI of spinal cord at onset on short tau inversion recovery (STIR) images showed large confluent lesions extending over multiple segments until conus (white arrows) (A) without cord swelling and without enhancement after gadolinium on T1-weighted image with gadolinium (B). Three months later on STIR images disappeared completely hyperintense steak (C), none enhancement after gadolinium on T1 weighted image (D)

Fig. 2
Brain axial fluid-attenuated inversion recovery weighted (FLAIR) images at onset showed bilateral diffuse multifocal poorly marginated, large asymmetric lesions of white matter, basal ganglia and cortical gray matter with asymmetric involvement of thalami (A, B see white arrows). A tumefactive lesion on left frontal lobe was detected too (C). Brain axial T1-weighted image did not show enhancement after gadolinium (from D to F). Three months later, axial FLAIR images showed a complete resolution of the lesions (from G to L) and no enhancement after gadolinium on T1-weighted image was detected too (M, N)
