Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to present the neuroimaging findings and differential diagnosis of bilateral thalamic lesions.

Conclusion: The limited differential diagnosis of bilateral thalamic lesions can be further narrowed with knowledge of the specific imaging characteristics of the lesions in combination with the patient history.
