Foix-Chavany-Marie syndrome (apparent diffusion coefficient MRI)
Apparent diffusion coefficient MRI of the brain in a 52-year-old, right-handed woman shows decreased signal intensity in the left frontal operculum (arrow), confirming an acute left opercular stroke. The increased signal intensity in the right frontal operculum (arrowhead) is consistent with a chronic infarct. (Source: Patel SA, Forrester A, Kang H, Collin E, Patel K.
