Persistent diffusion abnormalities in the brain stem of patient 2. Persistent diffusion abnormalities in the brain stem of patient 2. The axial views of the T2-weighted images (TR/TE, 2805/90.0 ms) of patient 2 at 9 months of age show hyperintense lesions in the pons (A) but not in the basal ganglia (B). In panels C–F, the DWI (C, and E) and ADC maps (D and F) at 9 months (C and D) and 4 years of age (E and F) are shown. The pontes are shown in insets of panels A and C–F with higher magnifications. Arrows indicate the abnormal signals on the T2-weighted images and DWIs. Y. Sakai et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2006;27:1924-1926 ©2006 by American Society of Neuroradiology
