A. Chest radiograph on day 1 of hospital admission, demonstrating consolidation in the posterior basal segment of the right lower lobe. B: Chest radiograph on day 3 of admission showing progressive, diffuse consolidation surrounding the right hilum and extending into the right lower lobe, with lesser consolidation surrounding the left hilum extending into the medial aspect of the left lower lobe.

Initial chest radiography demonstrated right lower zone opacity suggestive of consolidation (Fig. 1A). Repeat chest radiography now showed bilateral opacities, extensive in the right lower zone (Fig. 1B).
Axial diffusion-weighted (left) and FLAIR magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, demonstrating a focal zone of diffusion restriction and hyperintensity occupying the central splenium of the corpus callosum, measuring approximately 7 x 5 mm (red arrows).

T2 hyperintensity and diffusion restriction (Fig. 2). The impression was of a 'transient lesion of the splenium', of possible para-infective aetiology.
