FIG 1. At presentation, ADC maps (A, B, and C) and diffusion-weighted images (D, E, and F) showed restrictive diffusion in the frontoparietal white matter and splenium of the corpus callosum. T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images (G and H) are normal.

FIG 2. Three weeks after presentation, the ADC maps (A, B, and C) and diffusion-weighted images (D, E, and F) have normalized. No restricted diffusion is seen in the white matter. Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images (G and H), however, now show prolonged T2 changes in the areas of prior restricted diffusion. The postgadolinium sequences (I and J) show no enhancement.
