Fig. 2. MRI images following the onset of paraplegia in this case. The CT spine image (A) shows a low-signal intensity, suggesting bone metastasis (chevron). A and B (T-L spine image) show a T2 high-signal intensity from the T4 level to the conus medullaris and a suspected cord infarction (arrow). The T2 weighted axial image (C) shows diffuse cord swelling, another suspected symptom of cord infarction (thick arrow).
