Lesions that mimic intramedullary tumours. Lesions that mimic intramedullary tumours. (A) Cavernous malformation; gradient echo image demonstrates characteristic blooming of the haemosiderin ring (white arrow). Cavernous malformations typically demonstrate heterogenous signal on T1 and T2 weighted images due to blood products of varying ages. (B) Dural arteriovenous fistula; T2 weighted image demonstrates increased signal within the lower thoracic cord (white arrow heads) as well as numerous tortuous filling defects along the dorsal aspect of the cord (white arrows). The site of maximal MRI abnormality is not a reliable indicator of the location of the fistula; a complete spinal angiogram is therefore required. (C) Demyelination; T2 weighted image demonstrates a hyperintense lesion (white arrow) that does not cause significant spinal cord enlargement. The plaques are typically isointense to hypointense on T1 weighted images, and demonstrate variable enhancement depending on acute activity. In most patients, additional lesions of variable enhancement are present in the brain and spinal cord. (D) Transverse myelitis; T2 weighted image demonstrates increased signal and mild swelling involving most of the conus (white arrows). Lesions characteristically occupy greater than two-thirds of the cross-sectional area of the cord. An acute clinical course is typical, in contrast with that of most spinal cord tumours.
