T1 bright cortical lesions in context of PML

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4426496/

Hyperintense cortical signal (HCS) in pre-contrast T1-weighted images on MRI has been described in a variety of CNS conditions and most notably in hypoxia/ischemia, status epilepticus, hypoglycemia, osmotic demyelination syndrome, and mitochondrial disorders. Less frequent associations have been made with immunologic disorders such as systemic lupus erythematousus or subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, and meningoencephalitis.
