Restricted diffusion in the corpus callosum: A neuroradiological marker in hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy
BACKGROUND Restricted diffusion within the splenium of the corpus callosum has been described by other authors in various conditions, however, restricted diffusion in the entire corpus callosum or isolated involvement of the splenium, genu, or body has been infrequently reported on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. We report a series of cases showing ...
متن کاملDiffusion anisotropy in the corpus callosum.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The corpus callosum is a heterogeneous white-matter tract that connects the cerebral hemispheres. The purpose of this investigation was to study its microstructural architecture in normal human adult brains by using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). METHODS Two hundred consecutive patients referred for brain MR imaging underwent additional DTI with a high gradient field s...
متن کاملRestricted Diffusion in the Splenium of the Corpus Callosum After Cardiac Arrest
The value of MRI findings for coma prognostication is a question of great clinical and pathological relevance. We describe MRI evidence of restricted diffusion in the splenium in 5 patients with coma after cardiopulmonary resuscitation following cardiac arrest. The most common clinical presentation of corpus callosum lesions (of any cause) is altered mental status, consistent with the global im...
متن کاملFiber Tractography and Diffusion Tensor Imaging in Children with Agenesis and Dysgenesis of Corpus Callosum: A Clinico-Radiological Correlation
Background Corpus callosum is the largest commissure in human brain. It consists of tightly packed white matter tracts connecting the two cerebral hemispheres. In this study we aimed to evaluate role of fiber tractography (FT), and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in ped...
متن کاملTransient restricted diffusion of whole corpus callosum and symmetrical white matter in epilepsy.
A 31-year-old man with a 10-year history of epilepsy developed complex partial seizure. Urgent brain diffusionweighted images (DWI) showed marked hyperintensity in the entire corpus callosum [apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) =0.14×10 mm/s] and in the symmetric peripheral fronto-parietal white matter (ADC=0.13×10 mm/s) without enhancement (Picture 1). EEG showed sharp waves over both frontal...
