FIG 3. A 34-year-old male patient with known neurocysticercosis.
A, B, and C, FLAIR images show multiple vesicular lesions in the parenchyma, mainly along the cortical surfaces. The perimesencephalic cisterns are prominent and contain hyperintense foci that could represent the expected flow artifact or cystic lesions with scoleces (B).
D, E, and F, FLAIR after 100% O2 shows increased signal intensity in the sulci and basal cisterns, allowing the visualization of a greater number of cortical lesions in the frontal, temporal, and occipital lobes. Also, the increased signal intensity of the CSF confirms that there is no cystic lesion in the perimesencephalic cisterns (E).
