FIG 1.

An axial MR image of a 59-year-old woman with COVID-19 who presented with respiratory distress and acute disorientation (case 1). A, FLAIR image demonstrates confluent FLAIR hyperintensity that involves cerebral WM (arrowheads) and patchy involvement of cerebral cortices; a small amount of scattered frontoparietal leptomeningeal FLAIR hyperintensity is noted (arrow). B, FLAIR image shows hyperintensity that involves the splenium (arrows) and basal ganglia (arrowhead). C, DWI demonstrates restricted diffusion that involves the splenium of the corpus callosum (arrows) and the cortex (arrowhead). D, DWI shows a diffusion-restricting focus in the pons (arrow).
