Diffusion-Weighted MRI Abnormalities as an Early Diagnostic Marker for Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease
Neurol 63:443-449,410, Shiga,Y.,et al, 2004
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
DWI can detect characteristic lesions in the majority of patients with CJD regardless of the presence of PSWCs. DWI was the most sensitive test for the early clinical diagnosis of CJD; consideration should be given to its inclusion in the clinical diagnostic criteria of CJD.
