From left to right, sagittal (FLAIR), coronal (T1-weighted), and axial (T1-weighted) sections of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed three weeks post-stroke. Note the ischemic lesions affecting the posteroinferior part of the right (R) thalamus and the right occipital lobe.

Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed an ischemic lesion in the right posteroinferior thalamus, parahippocampal, and occipital cortex (Figure 1).
The patient, at three time points, made original drawings. From left to right, drawings collected 40 days after the right thalamic stroke (T0), immediately after the last one of 10 repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) treatments (T1), and 1 month after the last rTMS session (T2). Pain (red tract) and paresthesia (blue tract) are shown. Note that at T2, the patient acknowledged that she marked the "wrong" side of her body (right rather than left); nevertheless, the original drawing, performed with no cues from the examiner, is provided here.
