Utility of MRI Enhancement Pattern in Myelopathies With Longitudinally Extensive T2 Lesions
Conclusions
Misdiagnosis of myelopathies is common. The gadolinium enhancement patterns characteristic of specific diagnoses can be identified with excellent agreement between raters educated on this topic. This study highlights the potential diagnostic utility of enhancement patterns in myelopathies with longitudinally extensive T2 lesions.
