Figure 3

Coronal (a) and axial (b) T2-weighted images and axial T1-weighted images pre- (c) and post-IV contrast injection (d) show a left paravertebral hydatid cyst. The cystic mass shows numerous and variable in size daughter cysts (asterisks), the rim of low signal intensity on T2-weight images with enhancement in the postcontrast image (arrows), and extension into the adjacent neural foramina (dashed arrows).
