Abstract
MR imaging studies of 15 patients with documented vertebral column coccidioidomycosis infection were retrospectively reviewed to determine the MR imaging features of coccidioidal spondylitis. On MR imaging, coccidioidal spondylitis may be unifocal or multifocal. Involvement of an intervertebral disk, vertebral body marrow, and adjacent epidural and soft tissue is generally seen.
