Figure 3. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the thoracic and lumbar spinal cord on day 29 of admission. (A) Sagittal T1-weighted image shows slightly swollen lower thoracic and lumbar spinal cord. (B) Sagittal T2-weighted image shows longitudinal abnormal lesions extending from Th5 to the medullary cone (yellow allows), consistent with longitudinal extensive transverse myelitis. (C) Axial T2-weighted image at the level of Th5 shows that these lesions mainly occupy the gray matter of the spinal cord.
