[Sequential arterial spin labeling findings of status epilepticus showing generalized periodic discharges on EEG following acute infarction in the right occipital lobe].

In addition to electroencephalogram (EEG), arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion images with the dual postlabeling delay (PLD) method are useful for evaluating the hemodynamic state of status epilepticus (SE). A 72-year-old man suffered from an acute infarction in the right occipital lobe, resulting in SE with general periodic discharges on EEG with a higher amplitude on the right side. On ASL, blood flow was increased at a wide area of the right hemisphere centered on this infarct.

[A clinical suspected case of cerebral syphilitic gumma showing spontaneous regression].

A 46-years-old man who complained of headache for 4 months was transported our hospital due to vertigo and nausea. Gadolinium-enhanced TWI showed ring-like enhancements in the right pedunculus cerebellaris medius and left frontal lobe on the brain surface. Additionally, FLAIR images showed high intensity area indicating perilesional edema.
