FIG 2. Images of a 13-year-old boy with a solitary cyst and JE.

A, T2-weighted turbo spin-echo axial section of the brain shows more extensive right thalamic hyperintensity on the same side as the cyst inciting edema. The encephalitic changes in the temporal cortex also lateralize to the same side.

B, T1-weighted contrast-enhanced axial section shows the enhancement of the wall of the cyst. The thalamic lesions appear hypointense and show no hemorrhage.
