(a) T2-weighted sagittal MRI of neck pretreatment, showing hyperintensity in the posterior paraspinal muscles, consistent with myositis (arrow). (b) T2-weighted sagittal MRI of neck following six weeks of antibiotic treatment, showing complete resolution of myositis.

Magnetic resonance imaging of the neck demonstrated diffuse T2 hyperintensity in the posterior paraspinal muscles and to a lesser extent the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles, consistent with myositis (Figure 1(a)). Repeat magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated complete resolution of myositis (Figure 1(b)).
