Correlations between Radiologic Findings, Biopsy, and Recovery
| Patient | CLN | DWI | Biopsy | Stroke | Recovery |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | N | N | Y | Y | Incomplete |
| 2 | Y | N | N | N | Incomplete |
| 3 | N | N | N | N | 2 mo |
| 4 | N | N | N | N | 1–2 mo |
| 5 | Y | N | Y | N | Incomplete |
| 6 | N | N | N | N | 2.5 mo |
| 7 | N | N | Y | N | Incomplete |
| 8 | N | N | Y | N | Incomplete |

| 11 | N | N | N | N | 2 mo |
Note:—“Y” and “N” indicate “Yes” or “No,” respectively. DWI indicates whether restricted diffusion was seen in the region of abnormal gyral edema and enhancement on the initial MR images (patients 1 and 9 subsequently had small foci of restricted diffusion after the other findings resolved). The stroke column indicates whether a stroke occurred during the same symptomatic epoch as the SMART symptoms.
