See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Abnormal MR imaging findings in patients with WNV meningoencephalomyelitis are nonspecific but not uncommon. Anatomic areas commonly affected are basal ganglia, thalami, mesial temporal structures, brain stem, and cerebellum. Extremity weakness or flaccid paralysis corresponds to spinal cord/cauda equine abnormalities.
