2 Figure MRI of racemose neurocysticercosis in the pituitary gland
(A) Sagittal section showing many cystic membranes without a scolex (red arrow) in grape-like clusters in the sellar and suprasellar regions, suggesting racemose neurocysticercosis. Also shown are some single cysts in the cerebellum (white) and brainstem (purple). (B) Coronal section showing racemose neurocysticercosis of sellar and suprasellar regions (red). Some single cysts are also present in the grey–white matter junction of the cerebral cortex (green). Dilatation of the lateral ventricles is visible (blue). (C) Transverse section showing racemose neurocysticercosis of sellar and suprasellar regions (red). Single cysts can be seen in the grey–white matter junction of the cerebral cortex (green).
