✦ Synopsis
A case of CPM/ODS with mesencephalic involvement is presented. The lesions were non-enhancing on CT and were homogeneous and well-defined on MR with prolonged T1- and T2-relaxation times. MR is recommended for imaging the pontomesencephalic demyelinating lesions associated with this disease.
