TEACHING POINTS

The purpose of this exhibit is: To review the etiologies of CNS vasculitis and vasculopathy To illustrate the imaging findings in a variety of CNS vasculitides and vasculopathies To explain the utility of MRI and particularly susceptibility imaging in the diagnosis and differentiation of CNS vasculitis and vasculopathy from demyelinating disease  

TABLE OF CONTENTS/OUTLINE

• Pathophysiology of CNS vasculitis and vasculopathy • Review of imaging findings in CNS vasculitis and vasculopathy: Pattern of distribution Susceptibility-weighted imaging Diffusion-weighted imaging Post-contrast enhancement Associated findings related to underlying disease • Sample cases and demyelinating disease mimics • Summary
