a–d show left high parietal lesion. Multiple intra-lesional hypointense projections from the wall are noted on the axial T2WI (a). These projections do not show hypointensity on the ADC maps (b) or enhancement on the T1FS C+ images (d). Axial ADC map (b) shows hypointense signal involving the wall of the abscess. Axial DWI (c) shows hyperintense signal involving almost the entire lesion. T1FS C+ d shows peripheral enhancement. e–g show right frontal lesion. It appears iso-hypointense to the grey matter on axial T2WI (e) and FLAIR images (f) with surrounding vasogenic edema. Peripheral blooming artifacts are noted on the SWI (g). Single voxel 1H-MRS (h) shows an elevated lipid lactate peak at 1.3 ppm (white arrow) with a maintained NAA peak. The peaks are also noted at 2.4 ppm (star), 3.2 ppm, and 3.6 ppm (notched arrow), consistent with the succinate, choline, and trehalose metabolites, respectively
