Evolution of the intracranial features of congenital cytomegalovirus on MRI.

Children with cCMV who present later in life without an established or suspected underlying pathology can pose a challenge to the assessing radiologist. The radiological sequelae of cCMV can be non-specific; in some cases, white matter signal abnormalities and focal loss of white matter volume may be the only intracranial features. It is therefore important that radiologists are aware of cCMV as a potential differential for these findings.
