3 Imaging Kang Min Park, et al. A B C D Figure 1. Brain MRI (left)
Diffusion-weighted (A), affarent diffusion coefficient (B), and T2-weighted (C, D) images showing an ischemic infarct in the left mammillary body (arrows). Figure 2. Brain CT angiography (right) This figure shows focal stenosis of the bilateral posterior cerebral arteries (arrows). Kang Min Park, et al. © 2018 American Academy of Neurology

4 Isolated mammillary body infarction presenting with memory impairment
A brain MRI revealed an acute infarction in the left mammillary body. The mammillary bodies are part of the Papez circuit, which is involved in memory consolidation and emotional control.
