Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 5492
  • Image ID: 21899
  • Plane projection: Sagittal
  • Aux modality: T1 C+
  • Modality: MRI
  • System: Central Nervous System
  • Findings: MRI of the brain demonstrates, within the left occipital lobe, a rounded region demonstrating central high T2, low T1 signal is demonstrated. It is bounded by a region of relative low signal on T2 and surrounded by extensive vasogenic edema. Diffusion-weighted imaging demonstrates marked restriction, and the periphery of the lesion demonstrated bright ring enhancement with somewhat shaggy borders. MRS of the lesion(TE = 144 ) has a noisy baseline but an inverted lactate peak is none the less visible, as are reduced choline, creatine, and NAA peaks. Findings are consistent with a cerebral abscess.
