2 Figure 1 Fat-suppressed, gadolinium-enhanced, T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scan in the sagittal plane showing destruction of the intervertebral disc (arrowhead) and of the 2 adjacent vertebral plates of L2-L3 (arrows) by an inflammatory process enhancing after gadolinium. As a result, partial collapse of the L3 vertebral body can be seen. The American Journal of Medicine  , e309-e310DOI: ( /j.amjmed ) Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions
