MRI of the brain obtained on day 11 of admission and CT angiogram of the head obtained on day 13 of admission. A and B. Axial pre-contrast FLAIR demonstrates increased conspicuity of the original focal thalamic lesion (arrow in A), as well as new, extensive abnormal FLAIR hyperintensity within the basal ganglia, thalami, cortex, brainstem, and cerebellum, with effacement of the cerebellar sulci C. Axial postcontrast T1-weighted imaging demonstrates increased enhancement of the lesion (arrow; noting incidental adjacent developmental venous anomaly, arrowhead). D. Axial arterial spin labeling image shows increased perfusion of the thalamic lesion. E–G. DWI images from superior (E) to inferior (G) demonstrate new lesions (arrows) in the right centrum semiovale (E) and splenium of corpus callosum (F), as well as increased size of the original focal thalamic lesion (G). H. Coronal maximum intensity projection image from a CT arteriogram of the head is normal
