Figure 4

Coronal T1 weighted brain Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) of the patient in Case B at presentation (a) and 6 years later (b). No mass signs were observed. Low signal intensity in the periventricular white matter suggesting leukoaraiosis was observed at presentation and progressed in 6 years. Diffuse cerebral and hippocampal atrophy, as well as enlargement of the lateral ventricles, which advanced in 6 years, was consistent with comorbid Alzheimer’s disease.
