Early Diffusion MR Imaging Findings and Short-Term Outcome in Comatose Patients with Hypoglycemia
AJNR 33:904-909, Johkura, K.,et al, 2012
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
On early MR imaging, hypoglycemic brain injury may first appear in the internal capsule and then spread into the hemispheric white matter. The absence of a lesion or the presence of a focal internal capsule lesion may suggest a good outcome. However, diffuse hemispheric white matter lesions may indicate a poor 1-week outcome.
