MR features of tuberculous arachnoiditis.

Abstract:

:Although tuberculosis is an uncommon cause of spinal arachnoiditis, it needs to be differentiated from other causes of arachnoiditis because it is a treatable disease. Myelography, which is the imaging modality of choice for the chronic adhesive stage of tuberculous arachnoiditis, usually reveals irregularity of the thecal sac, nodularity and thickening of nerve roots, clumping of roots to each other or to the thecal sac, or CSF block. Recently Gd-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid enhanced MRI has been found to be useful for the active phase of tuberculous infection, effectively demonstrating abnormally thickened and enhancing meninges, intra- and extramedullary tuberculous nodules, and spinal cord changes. We present the MRI features in a case of acute tuberculous arachnoiditis.

  • Alveolar echinococcosis of the liver: MR findings.

    abstract::Nineteen cases of proven hepatic alveolar echinococcosis were examined by magnetic resonance (MR) and the results were compared with CT. Fibrous and parasitic tissue showed low signal both on T1- and, generally, on T2-weighted images. In a few cases a high signal on T2-weighted images may be observed, due either to ce...
