[|Human|] 34y/o male with acute transverse myelitis(T2-conus) causing BLE paralysis, with brain mri that reads:No evidence of acute ischemic injury/pathologic postcontrast enhancement. couple of scattered punctate foci of subcortical&periventricular leukomalacia within the cerebral hemispheres, nonspecific
[|AI|]  Hello, The MRI is stating that the cause of your bilateral lower extremity (BLE) paralysis (both legs paralyzed) is not because of anything going on in the brain. You have an essentially perfectly normal looking organ north of the neck that's good. What is causing the problem is inflammation (swelling) in the spinal cord which goes from the T2-Conus levels (large area from between your shoulder blades down about 18 to 20 cm). Depending upon the cause of this inflammation, things can get better, but it could be a long process. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
