Fig 1. ROI in head of caudate nucleus (green), putamen (red), thalamus (cyan) (A), supramarginal gyri (SMG) (B), precentral gyri (PMC) (green), postcentral gyri (PSC) (red), and superior frontal gyri (SFG) (cyan) (C) on EPI B0 T2-weighted images (T2WI), and the corresponding diffusion-weighted images (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient maps (ADC). Bilateral abnormal hyperintensity can be observed on DWI with corresponding decreased intensity on ADC maps in thalamus (A) frontal lobes (B), and parietal lobes (C). Characteristic sparing of the PMC and PSC are seen in best in C, where these areas of Rolandic cortex appear normal. Hypointensity can be seen in the right Rolandic cortex on the ADC maps (arrow).
