  ABSTRACT: Hemichorea with corresponding putamenal T1 hyper-intensity and T2 hypointensity on MR imaging has occasionally been reported in diabetes mellitus with nonketotic hyperglycemia. However, the signal intensity in pu-tamenal and cerebellum lesion on MR imaging, which is believed to be pathogenetically related to hemichorea, is rarely documented in diabetes mellitus with nonketotic hyperglycemia. We describe a 57-year-old man with nonketotic hyperglycemic hemichorea on his right arm and legs, whose signal intensity in putamenal and cerebellum lesion was demonstrated by MR imaging.
