- Fig 1.
Images obtained at initial examination, performed when the patient was 10 months old.
A, T2-weighted image reveals hyperintense changes in the deep white matter and atrophy.
B, A b = 1000 mm2/s (heavily diffusion-weighted) image from an echo-planar trace sequence reveals hyperintense changes similar to those of cytotoxic edema.
C, Corresponding ADC map reveals a low signal intensity and low ADC value (0.55 × 10−3 mm2/s) in the deep white matter compared with the peripheral regions of the parenchyma, including peripheral white matter and the cortex (0.95 × 10−3 mm2/s).
- Fig 2.
Images obtained during follow-up, when the patient was 16 months old.
A, A b = 1000 mm2/s (heavily diffusion-weighted) image from echo-planar trace sequence reveals same hyperintense lesions.
B, Gradient-echo diffusion sequence (reverse fast imaging in steady-state precession) reveals high signal intensity and high pixel values (165) in the deep white matter, compared with the peripheral regions of the parenchyma (99).
