- Opis:
- Cysticercercosis is a parasitic infection that is commonly seen in developing countries. Treatment of cysticercosis can precipitate an intense inflammatory response which may further worsen the symptoms. Whole body MRI is an upcoming tool for screening of diseases. It can be acquired in the same setting as a brain MRI in reasonable time without any additional hardware. We present a case wherein whole body MRI was used to evaluate disseminated cysticercosis. It can prove as useful screening tool to gauge the disease load and modify the treatment plan accordingly, especially in endemic areas.
