title: Magnetic resonance features in carbon monoxide poisoning.
abstract: The authors describe unusual magnetic resonance findings due to carbon monoxide poisoning in a 34-year-old woman. With T2-weighted imaging, increased signal intensity was observed bilaterally in the putamen and the caudate nucleus. Lesions of high signal intensity in the globus pallidus, which have been previously reported, were also observed.
