Figure 2 (a) MR-Philips ACS 0.5 T. T2-weighted MR image: multiple round lesions with a hypointense ring and hyperintense central core. Perilesional edema with important mass effect around nucleus dentatus area (displaced IV ventricle). (b, c) SE (TR 500, Te 20) axial and coronal images. The ring lesions enhanced after gadolinium administration with typical soap bubble shapes.
