Decompression sickness (DCS) typically causes changes in the white matter of the spinal cord on MR imaging. We present a case of DCS in a scuba diver with dorsal white matter lesions typical of venous infarction. In addition, some central gray matter involvement was noted. Characteristic features of venous spinal cord infarction can be recognized on MR imaging in DCS but may be more extensive in severe cases.
减压病（DCS）在磁共振成像（MR）上通常会导致脊髓白质发生变化。我们报告一例潜水员发生的减压病，其脊髓背侧白质病变具有静脉梗死的典型特征。此外，还发现有一些中央灰质受累。在减压病患者的MR成像上可识别出静脉性脊髓梗死的特征性表现，但在严重病例中可能更为广泛。
