Fig. 22From: Paediatric brainstem: A comprehensive review of pathologies on MR imaging6 year old with headache, vomiting and fever: a Axial FLAIR image reveals hyperintense signal involving the medulla with extension into the adjacent cerebellar white matter. b and c Coronal T2-weighted image reveals small lesion with peripheral hypointensity at pontomedullary junction (arrow), the lesion shows peripheral enhancement on post contrast images. Possibility of CNS tuberculoma was considered. d–e Follow-up after 3 months on anti-tubercular treatment: Axial FLAIR and T2-weighted images show significant reduction in the hyperintensity involving the medulla with residual lesions. Clinically the child showed significant improvementBack to article page
