We studied three patients with myelomeningoradiculitis caused by Borrelia burgdorferi, herpes zoster virus or cytomegalovirus infection. All patients underwent MRI of the spinal cord with gadolinium-DTPA and showed enhancing lesions of the spinal cord or nerve roots that correlated with clinical signs. Gadolinium-DTPA enhancement may visualize lesions that suggest an inflammation associated with blood-brain-barrier alteration and indicate the diagnosis before serological results are available.
我们研究了3例由伯氏疏螺旋体、带状疱疹病毒或巨细胞病毒感染引起的脊髓脊膜神经根炎患者。所有患者均接受了钆喷酸葡胺增强的脊髓MRI检查，结果显示脊髓或神经根有强化病变，且与临床体征相关。钆喷酸葡胺增强检查可使提示与血脑屏障改变相关炎症的病变显影，并在血清学结果出来之前做出诊断。
