spinal tuberculosis

Extrapulmonary

tuberculosıs: an old but resurgent problem. MR images of thoracic vertebrae of a 23-year-old female. Sagittal T2-weighted image reveals a heterogeneous signal increase in the spinal cord (red arrows) (a). Precontrast (b) and postcontrast (c) T1 weighted images of the same patient show linear (arrowheads) and nodular (curved arrow) dural enhancement and tuberculous abscess formations in the posterior epidural space

Extrapulmonary

tuberculosıs: an old but resurgent problem. MR images of a 56-year-old male with the diagnosis of tuberculous myelitis. Sagittal T2 weighted image (a) shows a heterogeneous increased signal on the spinal cord (arrow). Pre-contrast (b) and post-contrast (c) T1 weighted images reveal linear contrast enhancement of the same region (arrows)

Extrapulmonary

tuberculosıs: an old but resurgent problem. MR images of a 17-year-old female with the diagnosis of cervical tuberculous myelitis. Sagittal T2 weighted image (a) shows a heterogeneous increased signal (edema, inflammation) on the spinal cord (arrowheads) and focus (arrow). The cervical spinal cord is observed as an enlarged diffuse hypointense area on pre-contrast T1-weighted image (b). Post-contrast (c) T1 weighted image reveals diffuse heterogeneous and focal (arrow) contrast enhancement of the same region. The focus is a tuberculoma (arrows)
