Abstract

Comparison between cranial CT and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in 10 patients with recent pontine infarction indicates a distinct superiority for MR. However, MR changes often failed to correlate with the degree of neurological dysfunction. Regions of abnormal signal intensity appeared to involve areas with normal neurologic function.
