ABSTRACT
Focal spinal cord lesions have been present in all previously reported cases of MRI appearances in myelopathy complicating vitamin B12 deficiency. We describe two further cases showing mild atrophy only and review the salient features of the previous 11 publications. MRI findings reflect quite closely the known pathological changes in this condition.

ABSTRACT
Iopamidol (Jopamiron 200) is a new water-soluble, non-ionic contrast medium for myelography, which recommends itself for reasons of safety, diagnostic effectiveness, economy and convenience. It has been used in a small series of 185 patients in doses of 10-15 ml and found to be highly satisfactory for myelography of the lumbosacral, thoracic and cervical regions.
