MR studies showed hypointense to isointense lesion in T1-weighted images and isohyperintense and hyperintense lesion in T2-wighted images [Figures 1-5].
(a-b) Thoracolumbar MRI in a 22-year-old male with spinal TB. T1-weighted image showed isointense mass which inhomogeneously enhanced with contrast administration at level T12-L1. T2-weighted image showed hyperintense mass at T12-L1, destruction of vertebral body, and intervertebral disc, paraspinal and retro-spinal abscess, and pathological fracture at T12 and L1.

Thoracolumbar MRI in a 21-year-old female with spinal TB. Noncontrast MRI in the lumbosacral region showed hypointense (in T1-weighted images) and hyperintense (in T2-weighted images) mass in the paravertebrae at the L1-L4 level. (a) Sagital view; (b) Coronal view; (c) Axial view.

MR studies showed hypointense to isointense lesion in T1-weighted images and isohyperintense and hyperintense lesion in T2-wighted images [Figures 1-5].
MRI of spinal TB in a 14-year-old female. T1-weighted images showed extradural isointense lesions at T6-T8 and L1, which intensify inhomogeneously with contrast administration. Note also that there is bone destruction. T2-weighted images showed extradural isohyperintense lesion at T6-T8 and L1 with bone destruction, canal stenosis at T6-T8, and L1, and kyphotic angle 16 . (a) Axial view ; (b) Sagital view.

MR studies showed hypointense to isointense lesion in T1-weighted images and isohyperintense and hyperintense lesion in T2-wighted images [Figures 1-5].
MRI of spinal TB in 20-year-old female. (a) Contrast MRI showed lesion at corpus vertebrae at T2 level;(b-c) compression fracture of the corpus vertebrae at T11 and T12 level.

(a-b) Thoracolumbar CT in a 22-year-old male with spinal TB showed destruction of vertebral body at T12 and L1, pathological fracture at T12 and L1, and kyphotic deformity.
