Figure 3. Fate of centrifugal lesions.

Figure 3

Twelve-month longitudinal evolution of a centrifugally enhancing MS lesion at 3T and 7T MRI in a 58-year-old woman with relapsing-remitting MS (Expanded Disability Status Scale 1.5, disease duration 11 years) that arises from a clearly visible central vein. A phase rim is not discerned at any time point. After closure of the blood-brain barrier, the lesion is visible as hypointense on phase images and hyperintense on T2*-weighted magnitude images. §Scan acquired at 3T MRI. Scale bar: 10 mm.
