Abstract

Infarcts from cerebral air embolism are rare events with potentially catastrophic clinical consequences. The imaging features of cerebral air embolism are not well-defined in the literature. We report a novel constellation of MR imaging findings of cerebral arterial air emboli-induced infarcts in a series of 6 patients. Awareness of the more distinguishing MR imaging patterns of cerebral air embolism may help establish this diagnosis and facilitate implementation of timely treatment.
