Serial MR Imaging in Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease
Neuroradiology 33:364-367, Uchino,A.,et al, 1991
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Serial magnetic resonance(MR)imagings of two autopsied patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(CJD)are presented.Both patients showed a dramatic progression of brain atrophy.The initial MR imagings were, however,interpreted as normal except for localized mild cortical atrophy in one patient.When a normal MR image is obtained in a demented middle- aged or aged patient,CJD may still need to be ruled out:follow up MR imaging may be useful.
