Overview
Brain MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of pathological changes in patients with CNS complications like seizures, AMS, visual changes or others in patients of HUS. Findings on MRI may include basal ganglia, brainstem, cerebellar or thalamic lesions.
MRI
Brain MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of pathological changes in patients with CNS complications like seizures, AMS, visual changes or others in patients of HUS. Findings on MRI may include any of these[1]:
- Basal ganglia lesions particularly in dorsolateral portion of the lentiform nucleus
- Thalamic changes
- Brain stem lesions
- Cerebellar changes
- Cerebral edema
