- Abstract
- Internal capsular genu infarcts infrequently cause cognitive impairment and behavioral changes, and little is known
about the underlying mechanism. Using diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) and the fractional anisotropy (FA) index in the
region of interest (ROI) and ipsilesional frontal cortex, we evaluated two patients with internal capsular genu infarction
who presented with frontal dysfunction and cognitive impairment. The reported findings help to elucidate the
mechanism underlying cognitive deterioration in internal capsular genu infarction. Key Words: Diffusion-tensor image, Internal capsular genu infarction
