MRI Findings in Susac's Syndrome
Neurol 61:1783-1787, Susac,J.O.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The MR scans in SS show a rather distinctive pattern of supratentorial white matter lesions that always involve the corpus callosum. There is often deep gray matter, posterior fossa involvement, and frequent parenchymal with occasional leptomeningeal enhancement. The central callosal lesions differ from those in demyelinating disease, and should support the diagnosis of SS in patients with at least two of the three features of the clinical triad.
