Radiological images of three cases of non-survival. The T2 flair series showed large patchy abnormal signals on the left frontal lobe, temporal lobe, and occipital lobe (a). T1 gadolinium-enhanced scans showed multiple patchy enhancements in the left frontal lobe, temporal lobe, and occipital lobe (b). A CT scan of the head revealed a large patch of low-density shadow on the right temporal lobe (c), and an enhanced CT scan revealed a ring-shaped enhancement on the right temporal lobe (d). The T2 flair series showed slice-like and patch-like abnormal signals at the junction of the right thalamus, left frontal lobe, and left temporal and occipital lobes (e). A T1 gadolinium-enhanced scan showed a ring-shaped enhancement in the right thalamus (f). Note: Lesions on temporal lobe were reported to be related to memory deficits (a-d); lesions on thalamus were reported to be related to disorders of consciousness (e-f).
