Fig 1.

An 8-year-old boy with elevated lipoprotein A and AIS involving the right MCA territory. Trace of diffusion (A) and ADC (B) maps show areas of restricted diffusion in the right basal ganglia and part of the subcortical white matter and cortical gray matter in the right MCA territory, representing acute ischemia. C, mIP-SWI map shows markedly hypointense sulcal and intramedullary veins within the larger right MCA territory (arrows). D, Follow-up axial T2-weighted image 6 days after AIS shows hyperintense signal in the infarcted brain tissue that extends beyond the vascular territories with restricted diffusion and matches the area with SWI-hypointense veins on acute neuroimaging.
