Examples of 2 patients with lesions visible only in the DIR images and not in the T2WI TSE images. Examples of 2 patients with lesions visible only in the DIR images and not in the T2WI TSE images. Sagittal (A and F) and axial (D and H) T2WI TSE images; sagittal (B and G), coronal (C), and axial (E and I) reconstructions of the 3D DIR sequence of the spinal cord. The group of images on the left (I, A–E) shows the cervical spinal cord of a 52-year-old female patient. Note the lesion in the spinal cord at the C4 vertebral body level, which is only visible in the DIR sequence. This patient indicated pain in her left shoulder, weakness of her left arm, and tingling in her left palm. In T2WI TSE images, 1 lesion was visible in the cervical spinal cord at the C2/C3 level with discrete contrast enhancement (not shown in the image). At first, the differential diagnosis included neoplasm and inflammation. Due to the cervical 3D DIR sequence, another small lesion was detected at the C4 lateral level on the right (arrow), favoring the diagnosis of cervical myelitis. The group of images on the right (II, F–I) shows the spinal cord of a 49-year-old patient with clinically isolated syndrome. Note the lesion in the spinal cord at the C7 vertebral body level, which is only visible in the DIR sequence. I. Riederer et al.
