  • Title: Gout in the cervical spine: MR pattern mimicking diskovertebral infection.
    Author: Duprez TP, Malghem J, Vande Berg BC, Noel HM, Munting EA, Maldague BE.
    Journal: AJNR Am J Neuroradiol; 1996 Jan; 17(1):151-3. PubMed ID: 8770267.
    Abstract:
    We report the MR features of a surgically proved cervical spine involved with gouty tophi in a patient with a long history of hyperuricemia. Tophi appeared as sharply delineated areas of low signal intensity on T1 and T2 MR images and showed intense and homogeneous signal enhancement on post-contrast images.
