Three thoracic vertebral bodies(T10, T11, T12) show hypointense on T1, heterogenous hyperintense on T2, STIR, enhancement post-administration of contrast.
Axial fat-suppressed contrast-enhanced T1-weighted image shows ill-defined paraspinal abnormal enhancement and the abscess with smooth peripheral enhancement on the epidural cavity, vertebral intraosseous.
The T10-T11, T11-T12 discs show high signal on STIR but relatively preserved disk-space height.
There is cord compression corresponding with the T11 vertebra.
