متن کاملGray Matter Involvement in Radiologically Isolated Syndrome
The unanticipated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detection in the brain of asymptomatic subjects of white matter lesions suggestive of multiple sclerosis has recently been named as radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS). The pathophysiological processes of RIS remain largely unknown and questions as to whether gray matter alterations actually occur in this entity are yet to be investigated in...
متن کاملTeaching NeuroImages: CNS involvement in systemic anaplastic large-cell lymphoma.
An 11-year-old boy presented with acute dysarthria and right hemiparesis. Brain MRI showed multiple enhancing supratentorial lesions (figure 1, A–C). An extensive infectious workup, CSF cytology, whole-body CT, and gallium and PET scans were unremarkable. Diagnostic brain biopsy revealed reactive astrocytosis.
