In this case series, we describe three cases of hypoxic brain injury seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with hypoxemia secondary to COVID-19-related ARDS. Of patients with severe disease, approximately 16% had acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), 14.5% required invasive mechanical ventilation, and 99% had pneumonia [4] . A recent autopsy case series found evidence of hypoxic changes in the brain tissue of patients who had succumbed to COVID-19, but there was no report of whether these patients developed ARDS, duration of mechanical ventilation if required, whether extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was used, presence or absence of cardiac arrest, or cause of death [21] . In this case series, we describe three cases of hypoxic brain injury seen on MRI, along with clinical correlations, in patients with hypoxemia secondary to COVID-19 related ARDS.	./cache/cord-281945-jvnjzjds.txt	./txt/cord-281945-jvnjzjds.txt
