White Matter Disease Induced by High-Dose Chemotherapy:MR Imaging & Proton Spectroscopy
AJNR 19:217-221, Brown,M.S.,et al, 1998
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
White matter changes are common sequelae of treatment with high-dose chemotherapy combined with AHPCS,occurring early in the period following high-dose chemotherapy,with a rapid and progressive accumulation to about 6 months,but not accompanied by persistent neurologic symptoms.The MR spectroscopic analyses suggest a minimal disturbance of the neuronal marker NAA,a finding that may in part explain the good neurologic outcome.
