title: [A man with an image from the past].
abstract: In the past intrathecal injection of ethiodized oil was used as a radio-opaque contrast agent. Nowadays the intrathecal use of ethiodized oil is very limited, however because of its inert properties it remains visible on radiological investigations even many decades after injection. Therefore, knowledge and recognition of this radiological feature is important since this prevents unnecessary further investigations.
