Abstract

Aim of the work: this study aimed to display the role of imaging by MRI in early detection and accurate diagnosis of chemotherapeutic neurotoxicity in neoplastic patients under chemotherapy.
Patients and methods: this study included 50 cases of different cancers with CNS radiological manifestations. It included any cancer patient, regarding the age, sex and primary   cancer and received any type of chemotherapy. The entire patients were evaluated by CEMRI technique, MR venography as well as diffusion weighted MRI.
Results: our result showed different forms of neurotoxicity that occur in cancer patients due to the effect of chemotherapy such as posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.
Conclusion: all survivors of cancer patients should have lifelong follow-up, preferably with magnetic resonance imaging which provided greater anatomic detail and early detection of any abnormality.
