Temporal changes of MR findings in central pontine myelinolysis
Abstract
We report central pontine myelinolysis in orthotopic liver transplant patients. Sequential MR imaging of these patients with central pontine myelinolysis shows progressive decrease of T2-weighted MR signal in the pons, which may not resolve despite complete neurologic recovery.
