Fungal cerebral abscess. Axial T1-weighted image (A) shows a well-defined isointense lesion in the right temporal lobe (white arrow). Axial T2-weighted image (B) shows low signal (white arrow) with surrounding edema (black arrow). Contrast-enhanced axial T1-weighted fat-saturated image (C) shows ring enhancement of the lesion (white arrow) with associated meningeal enhancement (arrowhead). Susceptibility-weighted image (D) shows foci of blooming (white arrow) inside the lesion (likely fungal elements). Diffusion-weighted and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) images (E, F) show diffusion restriction with low ADC signal (white arrows). Note the soft tissue in right ethmoid sinuses suggesting their involvement (white stars in images A–C)
