Abstract

The case report showed multi-particulate high intensity of T2-weighted image of brain MRI in 30’s male heavy smoker suicidal attempt case, taken on psychiatric examination, 5 months later of his mild COVID-19 pneumonia. The MRI finding, indicating multiple micro-thrombosis is thought to be a cause of his depressed state and anosognosia.
