Lack of Evidence of Acute Ischemic Tissue Change in Transient Global Amnesia on Single-Shot Echo-Planar Diffusion-Weighted MRI
Stroke 30:2070-2072, Gass,A.,et al, 1999
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We were unable to detect ADC or acute T2 changes with echo-planar DW MRI in patients with TGA, which suggests that mechanisms other than ischemic infarction may cause TGA. We did not identify spreading depression-associated changes of the ADC. Further refinement of MRI sequences may be necessary to detect subtle or transient signal change in brain parenchyma.
