Early diagnostic MRI of the brain[1]
Case reports and literature reviews have highlighted the importance of early MRI scans of the brain as a guide for immediate intervention for ADEM. Despite a high level of clinical suspicion and abundance of adequate treatment options, MRI is often delayed till the appearance of significant mortality and morbidity. Primary care physicians should be especially aware of its importance in ADEM.
