Diffusion anisotropy in the corpus callosum.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The corpus callosum is a heterogeneous white-matter tract that connects the cerebral hemispheres. The purpose of this investigation was to study its microstructural architecture in normal human adult brains by using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). METHODS Two hundred consecutive patients referred for brain MR imaging underwent additional DTI with a high gradient field s...
متن کاملReversible corpus callosum lesion in legionnaires' disease.
Legionnaires' disease is often associated with neurological findings. Despite such findings, computed tomography and neuropathological investigations are typically normal. This report describes a reversible lesion of the corpus callosum identified on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a patient with legionnaires' disease. MRI may show previously undocumented neuropathology in acute legionnaire...
متن کاملRestricted diffusion in the corpus callosum: A neuroradiological marker in hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy
BACKGROUND Restricted diffusion within the splenium of the corpus callosum has been described by other authors in various conditions, however, restricted diffusion in the entire corpus callosum or isolated involvement of the splenium, genu, or body has been infrequently reported on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. We report a series of cases showing ...
متن کاملRestricted Diffusion in the Splenium of the Corpus Callosum After Cardiac Arrest
The value of MRI findings for coma prognostication is a question of great clinical and pathological relevance. We describe MRI evidence of restricted diffusion in the splenium in 5 patients with coma after cardiopulmonary resuscitation following cardiac arrest. The most common clinical presentation of corpus callosum lesions (of any cause) is altered mental status, consistent with the global im...
متن کاملTransient restricted diffusion of whole corpus callosum and symmetrical white matter in epilepsy.
A 31-year-old man with a 10-year history of epilepsy developed complex partial seizure. Urgent brain diffusionweighted images (DWI) showed marked hyperintensity in the entire corpus callosum [apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) =0.14×10 mm/s] and in the symmetric peripheral fronto-parietal white matter (ADC=0.13×10 mm/s) without enhancement (Picture 1). EEG showed sharp waves over both frontal...
