Figure 1 (a) The axial T1-weighted image (TR/TE = 450 ms/19 ms) shows the bilateral mixed high and low signal intensity lesions in both the basal ganglia A fluid-fluid level is seen in both the lateral ventricles. (b,c) The axial T2-weighted image (TR/TE = 3200 ms/85 ms) shows bilateral high signal intensity lesions involving both the basal ganglia, the bilateral tegmentum and the left crus cerebri of the midbrain.
