FIG 1. A–E, MR images of the lumbosacral spine in a patient with CMT I and atypical clinical features (case 3).

Marked thickening of spinal nerve roots, completely filling the spinal canal, is seen on the sagittal (A) and axial (B) FSE T2-weighted (4000/120 [TR/TE]) images. Enhancement of hypertrophic spinal nerve roots and ganglia (arrows) is depicted in the postcontrast SE T1-weighted (TR/TE) sagittal (C) and axial (D) images. A coronal SPIR (E) postcontrast SE T1-weighted scan better depicts spinal ganglia hypertrophy and enhancement by supppressing signal from the paravertebral and foraminal fat.
