hyperintensity, (b) the MRI fluid‐attenuated inversion recovery image showed bilateral hippocampal hyperintensity (arrows). (c–k) Positron emission tomography based on 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F] fluoro‐D‐glucose showed a diffuse decrease in glucose metabolism (green color) in the cerebral cortex and cerebellar hemisphere, but increased metabolism (yellower/redder color) in the bilateral caudate putamen, lenticular nucleus, and dorsal thalamus. Increased glucose metabolism was also observed in the right hippocampus d
