- Device: MRI
- standard imaging protocol prescribed as part of the usual treatment: sagittal T1 and T2 slices after injection of contrast product (Gadolinium), 3D STIR and 3D PSIR sequence.
- 3D FGAPSIR sequence at the level of the cervical cord for the duration of the additional sequence is 10 minutes, for a total examination time of 40 minutes (instead of 30 minutes)
- estimate the number of lesions detected with the 3D FGAPSIR sequence and not detected with the 3D PSIR sequence. [ Time Frame: 1 DAY ]estimate the number of lesions detected with the 3D FGAPSIR sequence and not detected with the 3D PSIR sequence.
