Summary We described two cases of chronic progressive radiation myelopathy (CPRM), in which magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was of great value for the diagnosis. Gadolinium-DTPA (Gd-DTPA) enhancement delineated precise lesions responsible for Brown-Séquard syndrome caused by CPRM in both cases. This safe, sensitive procedure will be a requisite study in patients who are suspected of CPRM.
