Coronal SS-FSE T2-weighted image of a 26-week-old fetus demonstrates several hypointense nodules along the margins of both lateral ventricles (arrows). The nodules are somewhat similar to those in Fig 3 (though much larger in this example). A hypointense wedge-shaped area is also seen extending from the margin of the left lateral ventricle to the developing cortex (arrowhead), consistent with transmantle dysplasia. The fetus also had a cardiac rhabdomyoma (not shown). Findings are consistent with tuberous sclerosis.
