Abstract
The clinical and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) data of 8 cases of fungal spondylitis were retrospectively enrolled in the study, and the typical MRI findings were mainly discussed. The results released that fungal spondylitis should be suspected when the infection spreads along paraspinal ligament, and vertebral lesions show jumping discontinuous distribution. A blurred and incomplete outline of endplate on T1 weighted imaging sequence, loss of hyperintensity of the vertebral body, and banded like hypointensity under endplate on T2 weighted imaging sequence, indicate fungal spondylitis. These features contribute to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of fungal spondylitis.
