Magnetic resonance imaging in the assessment of brain involvement in alcoholic and nonalcoholic Wernicke’s encephalopathy

Figure 2 Magnetic resonance images in a patient with nonalcoholic Wernicke’s encephalopathy. A: Axial FLAIR image shows a high signal intensity lesion in the left cerebellar hemisphere; B: Axial FLAIR image shows a high signal intensity lesion in the cerebellar vermis; C: Axial DWI shows an high signal intensity lesion in the left cerebellar hemisphere; D: Axial DWI shows a high signal intensity lesion in the cerebellar vermis. FLAIR: Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery; DWI: Diffusion-weighted imaging.
