title: Delayed CSF enhancement associated with Todd's paresis.
abstract: We present a patient with Todd's paresis who had undergone lung biopsy and who manifested increased signal intensity in the subarachnoid space of the right cerebral hemisphere on 10-h delayed enhanced fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images. We think that this was attributable to gadolinium leakage into the CSF due to increased leptomeningeal microvascular permeability in this patient with Todd's paresis.
