Özet
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides unique information about various pathological changes of the brain. We present CT and MRI findings of an infant with hypernatremic dehydration. CT imaging was performed at admission and MRI was obtained 4 weeks later. CT revealed hypodensity in the bilateral border zone of centrum semiovale and in the parasagital region of the left parietal lobe. These CT and MRI findings are compatible with vasogenic edema deteriorating to venous infarction. We present the early stage CT and late stage conventional MRI findings and discuss the effectiveness and priority of imaging techniques in this disease. Copyright © 2006 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
