Figure 3: Brain perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (a) and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (b) performed 4 months after the stroke event and another 2 weeks, respectively. Transaxial images in three upper files (a) showing relative moderate hypoperfusion of the brain lobes, more marked in temporoparietal cortex. The cerebellum shows a relative elevated perfusion. In the three lower files (b), we see transaxial slices of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography showing conserved metabolism in the brain lobes with only a slightly increase in the cerebellum
