FIG 6. 84-year old man scanned 2 days after sudden onset of limb weakness.

A–C, FSE (A) and FLAIR (B) images reveal a distinct right lateral medullary infarct (arrows). Conspicuity was judged superior on the FLAIR image. Although the trace diffusion-weighted image (C) also shows signal abnormality in the same location (arrow), conspicuity was judged inferior to that on both FSE and FLAIR images.
