Cerebellar injury associated with perinatal asphyxia

Transverse magnetic resonance images at mid-cerebellar level in a full-term neonate with perinatal asphyxia showing abnormal high signal intensity in the cerebellar hemispheres in the (A) T2-weighted image and (B) T1-weighted image. Abnormal signal intensities in the dentate nuclei (short arrow) and in the pons (arrows) are seen on both T2- and T1-weighted image.
