SUMMARY
1. Intramedullary primary and metastatic neoplasms are well shown on MR T2-weighted images.
2. Most intramedullary spinal tumours enhance with gadolinium contrast agents, although some intramedullary astrocytomas do not.
3. Metastatic tumours can show a very focal enlargement of the cord as opposed to the more diffuse enlargement with primary gliomas.
