Brain and spinal cord MR imaging in a case of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis

A Feydy et al. Eur Radiol. 1997.

Abstract

We describe a case of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis following varicella infection presenting as transverse myelitis. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed diffuse cord swelling and signal increase without gadolinium enhancement and several silent brain lesions, all of which completely resolved at follow-up.
