Spinal Cord Schistosomiasis: MR Imaging Appearance with Surgical and Pathologic Correlation
AJNR 26:1646-1654, Saleem,S.,et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Multinodular intramedullary contrast enhancement of the distal cord enabled correct presumptive preoperative MR imaging diagnosis of spinal schistosomiasis in three cases. Accurate diagnosis, through recognition of its MR imaging appearance, allows early treatment and better prognosis of spinal cord schistosomiasis.
