Figure 1.. Magnetic resonance imaging exams. (A-C): first magnetic resonance imaging performed on March 2016 indicated diffusion restriction on diffusion-weighted image (A), T2 hypersignal (B), and peripheral enhancement on post-contrast T1 sequences (C). D-H: Neuroimaging performed on July 2018 showed a new lesion with peripheral restricted diffusion on diffusion-weighted image (D), T2 hypersignal (E), thick annular enhancement (F), spectroscopy revealed Cho peak increase (G) and minimal relative cerebral blood volume map (rCBV) increase. (H). (I-L): Brain magnetic resonance imaging performed on January 2019 disclosed a new right periventricular lesion with diffusion restriction on diffusion-weighted image (I), mild T2 hyperintensity sequences (J), and homogeneous contrast enhancement (L).
