Top row: axial FLAIR, SWI, T1-weigthed, and ADC MRI sequences. Long TR sequences revealed areas of hyperintensity of signal in the paracallosal and periventricular white matter, recognizable as hypointense areas in T1-dependent images and devoid of hypointense deposits in SWI sequences, but with perivenular distribution. Bottom row: 18F-FDG PET-CT brain scans showing cortical hypometabolism, except for the occipital lobes
