Herein, the authors report brain imaging features in 11 critically ill patients with COVID-19 with persistently diminished mental status who underwent MRI between April 5 and April 25, 2020. These imaging features include (a) confluent T2 hyperintensity and mild restricted diffusion in bilateral supratentorial deep and subcortical white matter (in 10 of 11 patients) and (b) multiple punctate microhemorrhages in juxtacortical and callosal white matter (in seven of 11 patients). In a series of 11 critically ill patients with COVID-19 who underwent brain MRI for a persistently depressed mental status, four patients had only diffuse leukoencephalopathy, one patient had only punctate microhemorrhages, and six patients had a combination of both. ./cache/cord-345445-9t1vebey.txt ./txt/cord-345445-9t1vebey.txt
