The affirmation of the role of UHF MRI in the clinical setting requires the demonstration of its diagnostic and prognostic power, especially in the context of fields not yet sufficiently explored, such as diseases of pediatric age. This study presents a single case of radio-chemotherapy induced leukoencephalopathy in which UHF-MRI demonstrated its added value compared to traditional MR imaging in the characterization of lesions and in the detailed delineation of their localization.
