From the case:
Cortical laminar necrosis
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_examine_pipeline_reports":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/91469/annotated_viewer_json?iframe=true\u0026lang=us"}
Laminar gyriform hyperdensity in the right frontal, parietal and temporal lobes, associated with underlying white matter hypodensity, which is consistent with cortical laminar necrosis as a consequence of a right MCA ischemic infarct.

Hypodense areas with loss of grey-white matter differentiation centered at the right basal ganglia, insula, and right frontal and temporal lobes, consistent with MCA ischemic infarct.
Case Discussion
Findings are consistent with cortical laminar necrosis due to a right MCA ischemic infarct.
