Fig 1.
A, Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) axial image shows high signal intensity in the left corona radiata, compatible with PML. Note the right frontal postsurgical appearance after evacuation of a cerebral abscess. B, Short TE spectroscopy shows increased Cho, free lipids (and/or Lac), and diminished NAA. C, After 2 months of treatment, with adapted biologic response but paradoxic clinical worsening, axial FLAIR image reveals an enlargement of the left T2 hyperintensity with obvious mass effect on the ipsilateral ventricle. D, Short TE spectroscopy shows further increase in Cho, Lac, and free lipid peaks (long TE not shown). Glx indicates glutamine/glutamate; lip, lipid; mI, myo-inositol.
