Case Study One (Part 2)
One month later, on 2/7/97, the T2-weighted
images show a typical wedge-shaped infarct in the distribution
of the left middle cerebral artery.
A contrast-enhanced T1-weighted image shows
asymmetric intravascular contrast enhancement. However,
there is minimal parenchymal contrast enhancement of the wedge-shaped
left middle cerebral artery infarct in the left parietal lobe.
Non-contrast computed tomography of the head
shows a hypodense left middle cerebral artery distribution
infarct involving the left parietal lobe. Minimal contrast
enhancement is seen.
