Abstract
Regardless of the compartment involved, imaging of spinal infections and other spinal inflammatory diseases must be performed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This allows early detection of changes in disk space or vertebral bodies. Associated paraspinal and epidural masses are depicted. However, in spinal cord inflammation MRI has a very limited specificity and cannot usually differentiate between the wide array of possible causes of intramedullary lesions. This article covers a spectrum of inflammatory lesions of the spinal cord.
