Idiopathic Cerebellar Ataxia of Late Onset:Natural History and MRI Morphology
JNNP 53:297-305, Klockgether,T.,et al, 1990
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
MRI or CT showed cerebellar atrophy without apparent involvement of brainstem structures in all patients with a pure cerebellar syndrome suggesting the diagnosis of cerebellar cortical atrophy(CA).The majority of the patients with additional non-cerebellar symptoms had evidence of an atrophy of the\cerebellum and the brainstem suggesting the presence of olivo-ponto-cerebellar atrophy(OPCA).In two of them,however,MRI morphology was not compatible with the diagnosis of OPCA.
