Figure 2

MRI of a 54-year-old patient with viral meningitis caused by varicella-zoster virus. (A) Unenhanced precontrast fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images. On postcontrast FLAIR images (B), sulcal contrast enhancement and a fine hyperintense lining can be seen, probably involving the leptomeninges in the absence of obvious white or gray matter lesions on both FLAIR and postcontrast T1-weighted MRI (C). The magnified inserts highlight sulcal enhancement.
