Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain in neuroschistosomiasis
Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain in neuroschistosomiasis
32-year-old man with cerebral schistosomiasis. (A) Axial contrast-enhanced T1-weighted magnetic resonance image (MRI) shows punctate multinodular enhancement pattern surrounding central linear enhancement. (B) Sagittal contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI confirms linear (arrow) and nodular enhancement pattern in different imaging plane. (C) Axial T2-weighted MR image shows hyperintense mass (arrow) with surrounding vasogenic edema involving right parietal lobe.
