Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease: Serial Changes on Diffusion-Weighted MRI
J Comput Assist Tomogr 25:274-277, Matoba,M.,et al, 2001
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We present serial charges on diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) in a patient with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). DWI revealed serial changes of abnormal hyperintense lesions that had become more extensive and conspicuous with progression of neu rologic findings, more sensitively than conventional MRI. In the late stage, disappearance of abnormal hyperintense lesions on DWI was observed. DWI proved to be particularly useful for monitoring the progression of CJD.
