Pseudo-Leptomeningeal Contrast Enhancement at 3T in Pediatric Patients Sedated by Propofol AJNR 39:1739-1744, McKinney, A.M.,et al, 2018 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Leptomeningeal contrast enhancement (or �pseudo�-leptomeningeal contrast enhancement) occurs with a greater frequency and degree on 3T postcontrast spin-echo T1W1 relative to gradient-echo T1W1 in younger children sedated with propofol and should not be mistaken for disease. This phenomenon may be more prominent with lower age or size and may arise from propofol-induced vascular smooth-muscle dilation.
