Abstract

The magnetic resonance imaging findings of multicystic encephalomalacia are featured by bilateral frontal large cystic lesion with corpus callosum involvement,evident heterogeneous enhancement of the lesion margin,ring hyperintensity on diffusion weighted imaging,and high choline peak and low N-acetylaspartate peak of the enhanced lesion margin on magnetic resonance spectroscopy.This article reports a case of multicystic encephalomalacia.

Keywords: diagnosis; magnetic resonance imaging; multicystic encephalomalacia.
