Unenhanced head CT showing small hypodensities at the right caudate nucleus head (A). Unenhanced brain MRI (B-D) demonstrating a wider right caudate nucleus lesion with high signal at Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequence (B) and intralesional foci of restricted diffusion (C,D). T1-weighted sequence after gadolinium-based contrast agent administration showing inhomogeneous contrast-enhancement of the lesion (E). 18F-FDG PET depicting asymmetric reduction of tracer uptake of the right caudate nucleus (F). Follow-up brain MRI performed after 2 months demonstrated gliotic-malacic evolution of the lesion, without any contrast-enhancement (G,H). CT, computed tomography; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; 18F-FDG PET, 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography.
