[MR imaging of cerebellar infarct]

Twenty-six patients with cerebellar infarct were studied with MR imaging at 1.5 T. Thirty-one infarctions were observed. Both T1- and T2-weighted images were useful for diagnosing cerebellar infarct. Large cerebellar infarcts were most frequently observed at the PICA territory. Small cerebellar infarcts were located in the border-zone between the SCA and the PICA territories. It was concluded that MR imaging is very useful for diagnosing cerebellar infarct.
