FINDINGS: Restricted diffusion (A, B), as well as FLAIR (C) and T2 (D) hyperintensity is shown in the bilateral corticospinal tracts at the level of the posterior limb of the internal capsules. Initial CT (E) is unremarkable except for a small chronic lacunar infarct in the right lentiform nucleus. Pre contrast (F) and post contrast axial (G) and coronal (H) T1 weighted images demonstrate no corresponding signal abnormality.
