Acute chorea and bilateral basal ganglia lesions in a hemodialysis patient K. Kiryluk, F. Khan, A. Valeri Kidney International Volume 73, Issue 9, Pages 1087-1091 (May 2008) DOI: 10.1038/sj.ki.5002768 Copyright © 2008 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Brain Imaging. (a) Admission computed tomography scan demonstrates new low-density regions in the basal ganglia; (b) admission T2/FLAIR MRI image with extensive symmetric areas of increased signal intensity within bilateral basal ganglia; (c) a follow-up T2/FLAIR MRI scan performed 6 weeks after the initial presentation demonstrates complete resolution of T2-weighted signal abnormalities.
