Neurocandidiasis: A Case Report and Consideration of the Causes of Restricted Diffusion Radiology Cases 7:1-5, Lin, D.J.,et al, 2013 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract We present a case of central nervous system (CNS) candidiasis presenting radiographically as bilateral punctate areas of restricted magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion in the basal ganglia. This case illustrates the value of carefully considering the causes of restricted diffusion in the brain, notably to be broader than acute stroke and to include invasive fungal infections.
