FIG 3. Comparison of CT and MR findings in the posterior thalamus.

A–C, T1-weighted images through the thalamus in three patients with mild (A), moderate (B), and marked (C) hyperintensity, respectively.

D–F, Corresponding CT scans demonstrate increased attenuation indicating calcification is present only in the moderate and marked cases.

G–I, Corresponding gradient-echo T2*-weighted images demonstrate that susceptibility-induced signal intensity loss is seen in the pulvinar in only the moderate and marked cases. Numbers in upper right are patient identifiers.
