Brain imaging of cortical deafness in recurrent stroke. Brain MRI showed multiple subacute infarctions in the left anterior and posterior temporal lobe (red arrow), multiple chronic infarctions in the right anterior temporal lobe (white arrow), and focal brain atrophy of the right temporal lobe (white arrow). DTI tractography showed no visible tract from bilateral auditory thalamus towards auditory cortices (green arrow). T2WI, T2 weighted image; FLAIR, Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery; DWI, Diffusion-Weighted Imaging; ADC, Apparent Diffusion Coefficient; DTI, Diffusion Tensor Imaging
