    In a patient diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, cranial computerized tomography identified contrast-enhanced lesions that presented a mass effect, indicating disease activity.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system.
    • Cranial imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and monitoring of multiple sclerosis.
    • Lesions in multiple sclerosis can exhibit various imaging characteristics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report imaging findings in a case of multiple sclerosis.
    • To highlight the presentation of contrast-enhanced lesions with mass effect.

    Main Methods:

    • Histological confirmation of multiple sclerosis.
    • Cranial computerized tomography (CT) scan with contrast enhancement.

    Main Results:

    • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.

  • Cranial CT revealed contrast-enhanced lesions.
  • Observed mass effect associated with the contrast-enhanced lesions.
  • Conclusions:

    • Contrast-enhanced lesions on cranial CT can manifest with a mass effect in multiple sclerosis.
    • Imaging findings like mass effect may indicate active inflammatory processes in multiple sclerosis.
