PRIMARY LYMPHOMA OF THE CAUDA-EQUINA - MYELOGRAPHIC, CT MYELOGRAPHIC,AND MR APPEARANCE

This case demonstrates the myelographic, CT myelographic, and MR appea rance of primary lymphoma of the cauda equina. It also illustrates the utility of high-resolution CT myelography in certain lesions of the c auda equina. The authors feel that CT myelography, with its inherent a bility to depict individual nerve roots and therefore any pathologic i nvolvement as well, should be considered an adjunct to MR in imaging t he cauda equina.
