Discussion
Findings
- Globus Pallidus
• CT hypodense
• T2/DWI hyperintense
Differential
- Carbon monoxide poisoning
- Wilson disease
- Japanese encephalitis
Acute carbon monoxide poisoning
- Anoxic-ischemic encephalopathy due to inhaled CO
- Carbon monoxide impairs hemoglobintransport of oxygen
- Infarct of globi pallidi
- Restricted diffusion in early/acuteexposure
