Overview

  • MRI may be performed to detect spinal cord bone infiltration of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.[1]

MRI

  • MRI may be performed to detect spinal cord bone infiltration of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.[1]
  • On spinal MRI, chronic lymphocytic leukemia is characterized by expansion of the spinal cord and lymph node enlargement.
  • Spinal MRI image characteristics observed among chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients include:
  • T1 weighted image demonstrates:
  • Diffusely hypointense signal
  • T1 weighted image with gadolinium contrast demonstrates:
  • Heterogeneous enhancement in 90% of the cases
  • T2 weighted image demonstrates:
  • Heterogeneous and diffuse enhancement
