The figure above is a scan showing diffusion-weighted imaging findings at the initial brain magnetic resonance imaging of a patient with unusual amnestic syndrome in Massachusetts during 2012. — Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)* findings at initial brain MRI in a patient with unusual amnestic syndrome — Massachusetts, 2012

Abbreviations: MIP = maximum intensity projection; mm = millimeter; MRI = magnetic resonance imaging.

* Axial DWI demonstrates bright signal consistent with complete bilateral hippocampal ischemia. The complete extent of hippocampal ischemia is best evident on thick 20 mm MIP images constructed from the axial DWI data.
