Figure 4. First axial FLAIR-weighted MRI showing hyperintense signal areas diffusely in the white matter and cerebral cortex in the medial and anterior-basal parts of the left temporal lobe (arrows). There is a mass effect with compression of the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle and deformation of the cerebral peduncle to the left (arrow). Similar but less prominent changes are seen in the right temporal lobe.
