Fig. 1A. 50-year-old man with purulent ventriculitis after resection
of cerebellar hemangioblastoma and ventricular shunt placement.
Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery image (TR/TE, 9000/105; inversion time,
2500 msec) shows ventricular debris in dependent part of occipital horns
(straight arrows) has higher signal intensity than cerebrospinal
fluid in nondependent parts of lateral ventricles. Hyperintense signal around
ventricles (curved arrow) is consistent with ependymitis and
periventricular inflammation.
