The MRI revealed widening of cerebral sulci at a cortical level (Figure 1(a)) volumetric reduction of brain tissue and involvement of superior frontal gyrus. In the sagittal section is observed atrophy in the marginal callosal fissure, widening of the paracentral sulcus, and atrophy in the superior frontal gyrus (seen from the medial side) (Figure 1(b)). The image at the coronal slice (Figure 1(c)) revealed another temporal lobe involvement, especially in the lateral fissure or Sylvian fissure, with the left hippocampal atrophy involvement which is related to a deficit in consolidation processes and information storage.
