We describe the clinical characteristics and a series of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies in a patient with the features of dorsal midbrain syndrome occurring in the setting of multiple sclerosis. A T2-weighted MRI study revealed a discrete abnormality in the tectum of the midbrain whereas a high volume delayed computed tomography (CT) scan was uninformative. In parallel with remission of the clinical findings, the MRI abnormality diminished over time and was no longer visible at one year suggesting that some MRI detected MS lesions can completely disappear with time. This report demonstrates the use of MRI to detect and to follow sequentially sites of known disease activity in MS.
我们描述了一名患有多发性硬化症相关背侧中脑综合征特征患者的临床特征及一系列磁共振成像（MRI）研究。一项T2加权MRI研究显示中脑顶盖有一个离散性异常，而高容量延迟计算机断层扫描（CT）未提供有用信息。随着临床症状缓解，MRI异常随时间逐渐减轻，一年时已不可见，提示某些MRI检测到的MS病变可随时间完全消失。本报告展示了MRI在检测和连续追踪MS已知疾病活动部位方面的应用。
