We report diffusion-weighted (DW) MR findings for acute spinal cord ischemia in a 56-year-old patient. MR imaging obtained approximately 3 h after symptom onset demonstrated an area of hyperintensity on DW images, but no conspicuous signal abnormality on T2-weighted images in the conus medullaris. DW imaging of the spinal cord can contribute to the early detection of spinal cord vascular compromise.
我们报告了一名56岁急性脊髓缺血患者的扩散加权磁共振成像(DW-MR)结果。症状出现后约3小时进行的磁共振成像显示,圆锥部位在扩散加权图像上有高信号区域,但在T2加权图像上无明显信号异常。脊髓的扩散加权成像有助于早期发现脊髓血管损伤。
