“…Research indicates that T2 MRI with true fast imaging and steady-state precession or acquisition sequences can be used to identify and localize adhesive arachnoiditis through MRI [ 19 , 29 ]. The MRI signs associated with adhesive arachnoiditis encompass a range of features, including hydrocephalus, syringomyelia [ 3 , 7 , 13 , 14 ], arachnoid cysts [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ], clumped nerve roots [ 3 , 4 , 7 , 10 ], cord tethering [ 3 , 5 , 9 , 11 , 12 , 13 ], arachnoid septations [ 3 , 6 , 7 , 14 , 15 ], and arachnoiditis ossificans [ 3 ]. These are categorized as localization signs, meaning that they indicate the location of adhesive arachnoiditis, or as associated signs, meaning that they represent the consequences of the condition ( Table 1 ).…”
