Of special note were [areas of hypodensity]
When I saw the two answers above, I did a little research to make sure how "destacam-se" was being used in this case. I found some explanations of hypodensity in CT scans of the brain, and the bottom line seems to be that there is a darker space where brain tissue would normally be seen more brightly. According to the explanations I read, this could be due to a hemorrhage or other matter compressing the brain tissue or simply a space where the brain did not grow to fully fill up the space. So, since the area is darker, I think it's safer to be neutral and use "destacam-se" in the usual sense of "noteworthy."
