Foix-Chavany-Marie syndrome (diffusion-weighted MRI)

Diffusion-weighted MRI of the brain in a 52-year-old, right-handed woman shows increased signal intensity in the region of the left frontal operculum (arrow), indicating an acute stroke. The decreased signal intensity in the right frontal operculum (arrowhead) is from a prior infarct. (Source: Patel SA, Forrester A, Kang H, Collin E, Patel K.
