Fig. 1: Top: Coronal section of MRI of the brain on FLAIR (fluid-attenuated inversion recovery) sequence, showing high signal changes in the right hippocampus (arrow). Bottom: Coronal section of the same MRI on IR (inversion recovery) sequence, showing evidence of atrophy of the right hippocampus (arrow). The combination of these findings is diagnostic of mesial temporal sclerosis.
Fig. 2: Three-dimensional view of patient's brain. Areas of activation (Broca's area and Wernicke's area, arrows) for language are seen during mapping using functional MRI.
