Fig. 7From: A proposed magnetic resonance imaging grading system for the spectrum of central neonatal parasagittal hypoxic–ischaemic brain injuryCollage of MR images demonstrating the key features of the massive paramedian injury pattern. Top row = axial FLAIR and bottom row (from left to right) axial T2-weighted, coronal T2-weighted, Sagittal T1-weighted and coronal inversion recovery sequence images. These demonstrate the perirolandic injury (yellow arrows), diamond-shaped expansion of the parasagittal cortex including the paracentral lobule (green arrows), hippocampal destruction (white arrows), putaminal necrosis (orange arrows) and thalamic (blue arrows) cavitation. The red arrow highlights the severe deafferentation thinning of the body and isthmus of corpus callosumBack to article page
