  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: T1
  • Study findings: Extensive ependymal and leptomeningeal enhancement including the cranial nerves, most evident at T1 post-contrast and FLAIR (performed post-contrast), due to extensive ventriculitis and leptomeningitis secondary to cerebral abscess rupture. Pus filling the ventricular system and extra-ventricular CSF spaces including the basilar cisterns, which signal fails to suppress on FLAIR and demonstrates diffusion restriction. The ventricular system is dilated with periventricular edema signal, in keeping with active obstructive hydrocephalus. Left ventriculostomy catheter.
  • Modality: MRI
  • System: Central Nervous System
  • Findings: There is a right periventricular ring-enhancing lesion with central diffusion restriction.
