Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (a complication of measles infection). This is a follow-up MRI scan of the brain 3 months after the initial scan in the neurology clinic. This is a T1-weighted image. The scan reveals a focal abnormality in the subcortical white matter of the left frontal lobe. The focal abnormality was also present in the initial scan, however this follow-up scan also shows advanced and diffuse cortical atrophy, signified by the ventriculomegaly and markedly enlarged sulci (see arrowheads pointing to areas highlighted in orange). | |
