Figure 1

(a) Coronal postcontrast T1 weighted magnetic resonance (MR) image shows areas of old (chronic) infarction in the equators of both cerebellar hemispheres (short white arrows) and small, enhancing subacute infarcts in right cerebellum (long white arrows). (b) Axial postcontrast T1 weighted MR image shows areas of old (chronic) infarction in both cerebellar hemispheres (single white arrows) and an enhancing subacute infarct in the right cerebellum (double white arrow). (c) Axial diffusion weighted MR image (DWI) through the posterior fossa shows a small, old right cerebellar infarct (short white arrow) and areas of subacute infarction with diffusion restriction (long white arrows).
