(a) MRI brain: axial FLAIR image showing hyperintense signal in the caudate nuclei bilaterally (asterisk marks), both putamina bilaterally (white thick arrow pointing to the right putamen), and both thalami (thin white arrows). Note the sparring of the globus pallidi (black thick arrow). (b) Axial FLAIR of the brain showing increased signal in the temporal lobes (namely, the anterior temporal lobes, particularly the hippocampi (black arrow)). The Pons show no sign of demyelination.
