Figure 3. Axial T1-weighted image (A), axial T2-weighted image (B), axial T1-weighted image with contrast media (C), and coronal T1-weighted image with contrast media (D) demonstrated a 1 cm cyst with thick enhancing wall and perilesional edema at the left superior frontal gyrus. The cyst content showed hypointensity on T1-weighted image, and hyperintensity on T2-weighted image similar to that of cerebrospinal fluid. The cyst with dot sign was recognized on T2-weighted image.
