case_images: Scattered multiple fat-density nodules in the right temporal parietal occipital region were suggestive of emboli (Figure 1A). Carotid artery ultrasound revealed thrombosis from the bifurcation of the right common carotid artery to the origin of the internal and external carotid arteries on the right side. Cranial diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) revealed acute extensive cerebral infarction in the right frontal temporal parietal occipital lobe and basal ganglia area as well as acute lacunar infarction in the left frontal temporal lobe (Figure 1B).
