(A) and (B) are axial and coronal T2-weighted (T2-W) MR images showing a large area of tissue loss corresponding to the territory of the left middle cerebral artery (MCA) and a large right hemisphere, with shift of the midline to the left. There is a loss of tissue detail but abnormality is seen in the territory of the MCA including the central grey matter and the anterior cerebral artery (ACA). (C) and (D) equivalent images (axial T2-W and coronal T1-weighted) taken at 7 months clearly show tissue loss in both hemispheres consistent with bilateral MCA and unilateral ACA stroke.
