Clinical Characteristics and MR Imaging Features of Nonalcoholic Wernicke Encephalopathy AJNR 29:164-169, Fei,G.-q.,et al, 2008 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Typical symmetric damage of the mammillary bodies and brain paraventricular regions may permit a specific diagnosis of nonalcoholic WE. In all patients, no atrophy of the mammillary bodies and cerebellar vermis was found. Cortical involvement in patients with nonalcoholic WE may be indicative of irreversible lesions and a poor prognosis.
