Symmetrical lesions in the basal ganglia are accepted as the characteristic radiological feature of methanol toxicity. A case of chronic deliberate repeated methanol ingestion is presented. The typical MRI findings of basal ganglia lesions on T1 and T2 weighted images, FLAIR, diffusion and T1-weighted post Gadolinium images are presented. To our knowledge, this is the first case in which late diffusion and post contrast MRI images, showing necrotic sequelae due to methanol ingestion, are reported.
基底神经节的对称性病变被认为是甲醇中毒的典型放射学特征。本文报告一例慢性故意反复摄入甲醇的病例。展示了基底神经节病变在T1加权像、T2加权像、液体衰减反转恢复序列(FLAIR)、扩散加权成像及钆增强T1加权像上的典型磁共振成像(MRI)表现。据我们所知,这是首例报告晚期扩散加权成像及增强后MRI图像显示因摄入甲醇导致坏死性后遗症的病例。
