Subacute combined degeneration (SCD) of the spinal cord is well known to produce degenerative lesions in the spinal cord histopathologically, but a few reports on the neuroradiological findings have so far been reported. We presented the MRI findings of the spinal cord in a case of SCD. The localization of the radiologically proven lesions was similar to that of the previous pathological reports.
