Otherwise, delayed enhancement and accumulation of contrast media in SAS or cyst of metastases should be considered. We present hyperintense SAS and cystic brain metastases of lung cancer on FLAIR and T1-weighted MRI, respectively, in a patient who had been previously given contrast media for imaging of spinal metastases and had mildly impaired renal functions, and discuss the relevant literature. © Turkish Society of Radiology 2013.Englishantineoplastic agentcontrast mediumgadolinium pentetate meglumineadultarticlebone metastasisbrain metastasiscarcinomatous meningitiscase reportcontrast enhancementcystic metastasisfluid attenuated inversion recoveryhospital admissionhumankidney diseaselimb weaknesslow back painlung squamous cell carcinomamaleneuroimagingneurologic examinationnuclear magnetic resonance imagingparesisparesthesiapathologic fracturespinal cord metastasisspine metastasissubarachnoid space metastasisT1 weighted magnetic resonance imagingBrainBrain NeoplasmsCarcinoma, Squamous CellContrast MediaDiagnosis, DifferentialExtravasation of Diagnostic and Therapeutic MaterialsGadolinium DTPAHumansImage EnhancementLung NeoplasmsMaleMiddle AgedSpinal NeoplasmsSubarachnoid SpaceArticle10.5152.dir.2013.040
