CALCIFIED CEREBRAL LESIONS DEPICTING T1W HYPERINTENSITY ON MRI

Abstract

In this study, cerebral calcified lesions shovving hyperintensity on conventional magnetic resonance spin-echo T1- weighted images were evaluated. 9 patients, ages ranging from 3 months to 56 years old were included in the study. Cranial unenhanced computed tomography (CT) and conventional spin-echo (SE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (Turbo SE T2-, and T1-weighted) were performed in ali patients. The diagnosis of the patients were then confirmed either by clinical examination or laboratory findings. 4 patients had bilateral symmetric calcifications in the basal ganglia. The lesions were hyperdense on CT studies vvhereas they depicted hyperintensity on SE T1-vveghted MR images. Some of the lesions were also hyperintense on turbo SE T2-weighted images. These patients were diagnosed as Fahr's disease. One patient with TORCH infection had hyperintense subependymal nodules on T1-weighted images. Another patient with the diagnosis of systemic lupus eritematosis had bilateral symmetric basal ganglia and dentate nucleus calcifications. 3 patients with chronic cerebral infarctions shovved gyral hyperintensities on T1-weighted images which were confirmed to be calcifications on CT examinations. Cerebral calcifications encountered in certain disorders, such as Fahr's disease, SLE, TORCH infections and chronic cerebral infarctions, may be seen hyperintense on SE T1- vveighted images. This finding should remind the possibility of the presence of calcification and should be confirmed by CT study.
