* The regions of interest are shown as the numbered circles in Figures 1–3. The numbers of these regions are defined as follows: 1, the reference area with apparently normal signals on DWI; 2, the left, and 3, the right, regions of pontine or mesencephalic tegmentum with the hyperintense signals on DWI.
† Data represent ADC values (× 10−5 min2/s) in the regions of interest.
