title: Heat stroke: typical MRI and (1)H-MRS features.
abstract: Heat stroke (HS) is a life-threatening condition characterized by severe hyperthermia associated with central nervous system abnormalities. We present two interesting cases of HS with symmetric lesions in the dentate nuclei and cerebellar peduncles. Typical MRI and (1)H-MRS features including follow-up studies are illustrated.
