To determine the frequency of the possible association between chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and MS, we did magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain in 19 patients with CIDP. Only 1 patient had clinical signs suggestive of central involvement. Seven of the 19 scans showed 2 or more brain "lesions." In 1 case the cause was an infarct and in 5 cases the patients were over 55 years of age and the lesions were not typical of MS. One 38-year-old patient had 2 small subcortical lesions. Typical MS lesions on MRI are uncommon in CIDP.
