Abstract

Summary: A case of multiple sclerosis presenting during anti-tumor necrosis

factor treatment for rheumatoid arthritis is discussed. This association has

been reported in the nonradiological literature, but is an important

association for radiologists to be aware of, as they may be in a position to

first suggest the diagnosis.
