TI Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease: high caudate signal on magnetic resonance imaging.
QU Southern Medical Journal 1989 Sep; 82(9): 1177-80
PT journal article
AB We have presented an unusual case of CJD in which the magnetic resonance images obtained four months before death revealed high signal intensity in the caudate nuclei bilaterally. These findings correspond to severe involvement of this region at autopsy. This radiologic pattern has not generally been included in the differential diagnosis of CJD.
