Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 67356
  • Image ID: 47906165
  • Image stack position: 46/92
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: T1
  • Study findings: Bilateral, rather symmetrical abnormal signal intensities are noted in both thalami, as well as the deep white matter of frontal and parietal lobes on both sides. The dorsal pons is possibly involved. These lesions present diffusion restriction on DWI (verified on the ADC map), bright signal on T2WI/FLAIR and low signal on T1WI, with foci of hemosiderin deposition within the center of thalamic lesions seen on GRE images, consistent with previous hemorrhage. No post-contrast enhancement, significant mass effect or midline shift.
  • Modality: MRI
  • System: Paediatrics
  • Findings: Bilateral symmetrical ill-defined hypodense lesions at both thalami with no significant mass effect or midline shift.
