Core Tip |
Prominent leptomeningeal contrast enhancement (LMCE) in the brain is seen in some pediatric patients during sedation for imaging, but they do not exhibit meningeal disease. This pattern of pseudo LMCE is relatively common on post-contrast spin echo-T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging of pediatric patients sedated by sevoflurane due to their fragile and immature vasculature. Knowing pertinent clinical history is an essential prerequisite to avoid radiological overcalling and additional investigations. Our study determined whether sevoflurane inhalation in pediatric patients led to pseudo LMCE on 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging. |
