    Figure 1 MOGIgG+ MRI

    (A) T2-weighted cervical spinal cord MRI. LETM (arrows), typical of MOGAD. Patient also tested positive for Borrelia burgdorferi. (B) Axial T2-weighted MRI. Bilateral asymmetric T2 hyperintensities in the middle cerebellar peduncles (arrows), typical of cerebral MOGAD. (C) Axial FLAIR MRI. Multiple hyperintensities involving left trigone, posterior limb of left internal capsule, and frontal horn right lateral ventricle (arrows). Abbreviations: LETM = longitudinally extensive TM; MOGAD = myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease

    Figure 2 AQP4IgG+ MRI

    (A) T2-weighted sagittal MRI patient 1. Typical bright, spotty appearance of AQP4+ NMOSD (arrows). (B) T2-weighted axial MRI patient 1. Ill-defined right pontine lesion (arrow). (C and D) Sagittal (C) and axial (D) T2-weighted MRI. Hyperintensity in posterior medulla abutting fourth ventricle (arrows), typical of AQP4+ NMOSD. Abbreviations: AQP4 = aquaporin 4; NMOSD = neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder

    Figure 3 MRI Spinal Cord of Seronegative Patients

    (A) Gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted sagittal MRI. Patchy enhancement throughout cervical cord (arrows). (B) T2-weighted sagittal MRI. LETM from level of C5 to T3 (long arrows) with discrete lesions throughout thoracic cord (short arrows). (C) T2-weighted axial MRI at level of T3. Centrally located hyperintensity affecting more than half the cord diameter (arrow). Abbreviation: LETM = longitudinally extensive TM.

    Figure 4 MRI Scans of Seronegative Patients With Poor Outcomes

    (A and B) Axial (A) and sagittal (B) T2-weighted spinal cord MRI. Diffuse swelling and T2 hyperintensity affecting full cord diameter (arrows). (C) Axial T2-weighted MRI. Multiple, rounded lesions in deep white matter (arrows). (D) Sagittal T2-weighted MRI. LETM (arrows). Abbreviation: LETM = longitudinally extensive TM.
