T2 shinethrough artifact in DWI. A, T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery image shows numerous nonspecific periventricular and subcortical hyperintense foci, as well as a larger wedge-shaped region of hyperintensity in the right parietal lobe suggestive of infarct. B, Combined DWI image at the same axial level reveals that the right parietal abnormality is hyperintense, suggesting acute ischemia. C, Corresponding ADC map demonstrates elevated mean diffusivity within the abnormal region, consistent with chronic infarction. D, Low signal intensity within the lesion on the attenuation coefficient image confirms that the DWI signal-intensity hyperintensity is due to T2 shinethrough and does not reflect reduced diffusion as would be seen in an acute infarct.
