MRI of the pituitary shows the posterior pituitary bright spot at the hypothalamic floor and not in the sella. The anterior pituitary shows concavity directed superiorly and measures ~2 mm in height. The pituitary stalk is in the centre, however, it appears thinned out and incomplete. The optic chiasma is normal and undisplaced.
