Abstract:involved in posterior cerebral artery infarction but it is normally spared in PRES (3,4). Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) mapping can help to differentiate an ischemic lesion, which appears hyperintense on DWI and hypointense on ADC maps, from a lesion due to PRES, which does not appear hypointense on ADC maps (5). The distinction between PRES and central nervous system vasculitis can easily be made, since vasculitis lacks the typical MRI findings of PRES, and the diag… Show more
