MR findings. MR examination obtained on a 3Tesla unit (a-e), and 1.5Tesla unit (f, g). Axial (a) and coronal (B) T2 weighted images show the outcome of long-standing surgery with cranioplasty in the right temporo-parietal region and multiple, posterior cortical and subcortical lesions with bleeding areas and hemosiderin. Axial T2* gradient-echo (c) image shows multiple tiny scattered hypointensities consistent with microhemmorhages in posterior regions. In T1 wi (d) a recent right frontal hematoma is shown. Leptomeningeal microhemorrhages are disseminated also in the frontal and parietal lobes as demonstrated in T2*gradient-echo image (e). Note in T2*gradient-echo images (f and g), the progression of punctate microhemorrhages in 4-years follow-up, evident also in 1,5 Tesla
