Unusual MR Findings of the Brain Stem in Arterial Hypertension AJNR 21:391-394,243, deSeze,J.,et al, 2000 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract MR imaging findings have been reported in only a few cases of severe arterial hypertension. We report two cases of severe paroxysmal arterial hypertension associated with unusual brain stem hyperintensity.
