IWMDR on initial brain MR imaging in children with cerebral malaria. A–C, Axial diffusion-weighted images in 3 different comatose children with acute cerebral malaria. There are confluent regions of diffusion restriction in the subcortical white matter without involvement of the cortex or deep gray matter. D–F, Axial DWI in a different patient demonstrates a similar pattern of white matter hyperintensity on diffusion-weighted images, with corresponding hypointensity on ADC maps, consistent with true diffusion restriction. Axial T2-weighted image demonstrates subtle regions of corresponding T2 hyperintensity.
