Popis: Clinical features and MRI-characteristics of two demyelinating diseases: acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) and multiple sclerosis (MS) are discussed. Despite the seeming obviousness of differential-diagnostic criteria, the individual course of disease can, in some cases, accomplishes the differential diagnosis specifically in cases of recurrent (monophasic) ADEM and the first episode of acute demyelination, resembling ADEM, in MS. A clinical case of MS with acute manifestation resembling ADEM is described.
