Figure (A) T2-weighted magnetic resonance image showing marked diffuse brain edema of the left hemisphere with mass effect effacing the normal cortical architecture and sulci (arrows). Note pressure on the left ventricle with slight midline shift. The right hemisphere is normal. (B) Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance image demonstrating area of cortical diffusion decay in the left hemisphere (arrow), indicating an active process.
