Primary angiitis of the CNS is histopathologically characterized by ischemic lesions and small petechial hemorrhages. Unlike CT or conventional MR imaging, gradient-echo MR imaging depicts these chronic petechial hemorrhages. We herein report the case of biopsy-proved primary angiitis of the CNS in a 42-year-old man; whom gradient-echo MR imaging revealed multiple petechial hemorrhages in the cortical-subcortical brain regions. The identification of petechial hemorrhages by gradient-echo MR imaging promises to be a valuable surrogate marker supporting the diagnosis of primary angiitis of the CNS.
