MRI features of the representative encephalic Schistosomiasis japonicum cases (a-d from Case 2, e-h from Case 4). a: T2 weighted (W) image showed a single-nodular lesion located in the left parietal lobe with perilesional edema by axial scanning. b-d: T1 W image after gadolinium injection showed single-nodular enhancement with perilesional edema by axial (b), coronal (c), and sagittal scanning (d). e: T2 W image showed edema of left temporal lobe by axial scanning. f: T1 W image showed the involvement of the left temporal lobe in multi-nodular lesions by axial scanning. g, h: T1 W image showed multiple-nodular schistosomal lesions located in frontal, parietal and temporal lobes with enhancement of the nodules
