Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging of Cystic Lesions of Neurocysticercosis Arq Neuropsiquiatr 59:839-842, Raffin, L.S.,et al, 2001 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Neurocysticercosis is an endemic disease in some developing countries. It has pleomorfic clinical and imaging findings, which are variable from patient to patient. In this preliminary note, we studied the magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion-weighted images (DWI) of sixteen patients presenting with cystic lesions of this disease diagnosed by clinical and laboratory findings. All the lesions had hypointense signal and the similar apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values as the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
