abnormal mri brain HSV
— Both HSV1 and 2 are commonly prevalent in Indian population. (Mixed=83%, HSV1=10%, HSV2=1%) [1]
— HSV2 along with TORCH agents are major causes of neonatal encephalitis.
— Infections result from maternal birth canal or transplacental spread
— Unlike HSV1, HSV2 infection in neonates is diffuse.
HSV 2:
— Imaging findings are nonspecific.
— CT scans in early disease may be negative or show subtle areas of low density
— Conventional MR and DWI show lesions better.
— Lesions may be multifocal involving almost any area of brain or limited to temporal lobes brainstem and cerebellum.
— Watershed infarcts may be seen
— In-utero infections can result in microcephaly, encephalomalacia or calcification.

abnormal mri brain HSV 1 AND HSV2
I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
